visionary founders

We invest in founders at the earliest stages who are working on ideas that create a better future for us all.

Our focus is on empowering those visionary founders right from the start—individuals who are resilient, experts in their industries, and exemplary in their leadership. These are the innovators who commit to their dreams relentlessly, often at great personal cost. We stand by founders who embody grit and persist in the face of challenges until they succeed.

We leverage our extensive network, including pivotal players such as Siemens and Douglas Elliman, to provide comprehensive operational assistance. This support enables us to track our founders' growth actively and invest strategically at inflection points. Our investments are focused on FinTech, PropTech, IoT, AI, MedTech, CleanTech, and ventures making a significant impact.
