Yes, tell all your most talented and ambitious friends. That said, due to limited capacity of the venue, registrations will be capped.
We pride ourselves on not being rigid investors. The very definition of novel is "not like anything before". We get excited when something doesn't easily fit a category or seems strange. We are guided by our founders' ambition, not just a top down investment thesis.
We invest broadly from software to space and have invested repeatedly in deep tech areas. Our current portfolio spans enterprise and healthcare software, consumer, medical devices, autonomous robotics, AI infrastructure, clean energy systems and quantum technologies. We also update our investment thesis with every fund - read our current thesis here as well as previous ones.
Nothing is too small or too early. We have invested as little as $20K in a pre-seed round and many of our relationships begin before companies have built a product. We often work with founders through their ideation phase before their company has been formed!
Nothing is too large or too late. We have invested >$100M in a single round and have begun new relationships with founders at all stages through to IPO. Our goals is to invest right at the beginning of a company's life, before there is product or revenue, earn a courtside seat to the best companies by building a great relationship with them, and then invest hundreds of millions of dollars over their lifetimes.
