What we look for
Great Teams
Edison said genius is 1% inspiration and 99% perspiration. We believe startup success is 1% idea and 99% execution. A great team with brilliant execution makes a startup successful.
Capital Efficiency
Most startups exit below $100M, so they need to be capitalized such that all stakeholders win. Our incentives are aligned with yours — we celebrate all exits, not just unicorns.
Deep Technology
We gravitate toward startups with innovative technology that provides competitive advantages. We want to hear about your technical barriers to entry and the engineering challenges you've overcome.
