Philosophy

We back founders with depth—technologists and domain specialists who combine analytical rigour with commercial intent. Evidence outweighs narrative: early pilots, prototypes, and measurable performance are the basis of conviction.

Support includes evaluation design, access to enterprise/public-sector pilots, and guidance on responsible deployment.

Current Themes

Causal and predictive analytics; privacy-preserving computation; next-generation compliance tooling; diagnostic and decision-support platforms.

Contact

Warm introductions preferred. Concise founder notes are welcome: problem, users, approach, differentiation, traction, and round details.
