Thesis

Three beliefs, held early.

Ten to twelve cheques a year. We lead or co-lead every one.

  1. 01

    Sold to operators, not IT.

    Machine shops, clinics and freight brokers now try software on Tuesday and pay on Friday.

  2. 02

    Climate is industrial.

    Storage, grid and materials that beat the incumbent on cost, subsidy or not.

  3. 03

    Regulation is a moat.

    Payments, health and insurance are slow to enter and slower to leave.

Portfolio

Forty-two companies, backed first.
