Our Investment Strategy
We focus on high-quality, late-stage technology companies approaching the public markets. From a universe of ~1,000 pre-IPO businesses, we narrow to ~100 targets through initial screening and ultimately invest in a select group with strong fundamentals, clear step-up potential, and visibility toward an exit.
We primarily acquire secondary shares from employees and early investors—no board involvement required—offering flexible transaction sizes and simple execution. We invest across common, preferred, and convertible structures depending on access and alignment.
Our portfolio selection emphasizes market traction, competitive position, and liquidity feasibility. For every investment, we secure quarterly information rights to maintain responsible oversight while remaining low-friction partners.
In short: disciplined sourcing, selective investing, and founder-friendly secondary solutions in the most promising pre-IPO technology companies.
