    Investment Thesis

They value authenticity, and admire the tenacity it takes to turn a daring idea into an enduring company. They back extraordinary people capable of changing the status quo. They showcase their success, and work hard behind the scenes to amplify it. One lifealtering investment can lead to industrywide impact—They’ve seen it happen firsthand. So They aspire to be the partners of choice for today’s boldest startup founders, as they become tomorrow’s visionary leaders.
