Our Principals
For two decades, the Fund’s Principals have been financing new asset classes and scaling venture-backed startups across the technology spectrum — spanning consumer products, digital content, enterprise SaaS, fintech, energy transition, biotech & neuroscience, and physical AI & robotics.
​
Today, we leverage the expertise we built along the way to serve our Participating Companies as co-founders, company executives, or cross-functional advisors. The capability stack we have developed and deployed over our careers as operators — productization, market access & deployment, edge orchestration, bespoke financing — is exactly where today’s frontier AI founders need support.
