For founders

Building something defensible? We'd like to hear from you.

We look for founders with real ambition, clear thinking and the resilience to keep going when the plan changes. Then we get behind them properly: available when it's hard, out of the way when it's not.

What we look for

The founder, the moat and the shift.

01

The founder

Real ambition, clear thinking and the resilience to keep going when the plan changes. We back people before we back plans.

02

The moat

Even at the earliest stage, the shape of one: proprietary data, distribution, network effects, regulatory position, or a product that's hard to copy. Early doesn't mean undifferentiated.

03

The shift

A business riding a genuine structural shift in AI and its infrastructure, energy, or health and wellbeing. Not one that needs to create its own tailwind.

What we bring

Support that fits the company. No playbook.

Introductions

Customers, talent, co-investors and the people who've solved the problem you're facing.

Raising capital

Round structure, investor targeting, materials and the negotiation itself.

Operational support

From operators who've scaled businesses, not advisers who've watched others do it.

Finance support

The numbers, the board, the reporting, and the path to a liquidity event when the time comes.

How it works

A clear answer within two weeks.

If we need longer, we'll tell you why. If the answer is no, we'll tell you that too. As a family office, not a fund, you deal directly with the people who write the cheque.

Thanks. Your introduction is with the team.

Every introduction is read by the team. You'll hear back either way.

A few lines is plenty: data, distribution, network effects, regulation, product.
