Investment thesis

Small teams. Smart technology. Valuable companies.

01

AI changes the cost curve

Products that once required large teams can now be built and run by a few people. We back teams that use this deliberately.

02

Profit is a strategy

Businesses that reach profitability early control their own destiny — and become attractive to acquirers.

03

Value beyond valuation

We care about recurring revenue, normalised EBITDA and strategic fit more than headline valuations.

Sectors of interest

Where we look.

Indicative, not exclusive. A sharp problem and a reachable market matter more than a label.

  • Vertical SaaS
  • AI-native tools & agents
  • Workflow automation
  • B2B marketplaces
  • Data & analytics products
  • Developer tools
  • Fintech enablement (non-regulated)
  • Digital services for SMEs

How we invest

Flexible instruments, aligned incentives.

Each instrument has different legal and tax implications and is drafted individually with counsel. They are not interchangeable.

Milestone-based equity

Equity that follows progress.

  1. 01

    Agree

    We define measurable milestones together — product, customers, revenue.

  2. 02

    Build

    We contribute capital, frameworks and network as the company executes.

  3. 03

    Earn

    Equity is acquired as milestones are met. Both sides stay aligned.

Selection criteria

What we look for.

Value & exits

Value can be realised in more than one way.

Dividends from profitable companies, partial secondary sales, or an acquisition by a software company, industrial group or strategic buyer. EBITDA multiples are one possible valuation criterion among others — no exit, timing or multiple is ever guaranteed.

  • A concrete, painful problem
  • A reachable market
  • Verifiable demand
  • Predictable or recurring revenue potential
  • Sustainable margins
  • Low capital intensity
  • Credible acquisition potential
  • A committed, coachable team
