We have invested in more than 90 companies since 2016, including Pinterest, Compass, Hippo, Ro, Carta, Dutchie, Anduril, Varda Space Industries, Ghost, Front, Esusu, OKCredit, and Unqork. Additionally, through our subsidiary fund, New Slate Ventures, we have financed films, documentaries, and limited series that have been acquired by Apple, Netflix, and Disney. Based in New York City, we invest globally. Backstory Sinai Capital Partners was founded in 2017. We raised $100 million and built a talented team of young investors with offices in New York, Palo Alto, and Los Angeles. We made over 90 investments, realized 11 exits, and achieved a 1X return on our first fund within two years. In 2019, we raised $100 million for a subsidiary of Sinai Capital called New Slate Ventures, with the goal of supplying the many players in the streaming wars with independent content. Our films, series, and documentaries won Academy Award nominations, Golden Globes, Grammy’s, and Emmy’s, and were acquired by the likes of Apple, Disney, and Netflix for multiples of their cost. As a solo GP, I believe boutique, disciplined, early-stage funds with effective managers will generate the best returns for investors in this forthcoming innovation cycle. Throughout my career I’ve nurtured relationships across Silicon Valley, Wall Street, Washington DC, and Hollywood, and aim to leverage this access on behalf of the founders I support. Where to Now? We’re currently in the midst of the greatest acceleration of technological progress since 2010 and the advent of mobile/social computing. New frameworks for problem solving are emerging daily aided by artificial intelligence, CRISPR technologies, climate manipulation, and several other radical new fields previously dismissed as science fiction. When we started Sinai, the prevailing wisdom in Silicon Valley was that “hardware was hard” and that software investments provided much better risk-adjusted opportunities. That assumption is becoming less credible in the current venture capital landscape, with space exploration, brain computer interfaces, driverless electric vehicles, autonomous warfare drones, and nuclear fusion companies all appearing to be increasingly within reach, with potentially transformational impacts on civilization. Sinai’s new focus will be on these harder technical problems, as we believe this is where the majority of the value creation for this next venture cycle will emerge. While we still welcome revenue generating SaaS businesses, its become clearer to us that the best returns come from the most non-obvious ideas in undefined markets and categories. Some of our latest investments include Anduril, Varda, Galvanick, Rangeview, Factory.AI, Science.IO, and several others. We seek to invest in 5-10 companies each year, with average check sizes ranging between $1-5M depending on stage. We’re happy to lead seed rounds where we have high conviction, but prefer to collaborate with our friends at top funds across the globe. We are geographically agnostic, but are most active in New York, San Francisco, Miami, London, and the South Bay of Los Angeles.

TAKING THE GRAND LEAP FORWARD, FOR THE NEXT PLATFORM The circumstances we are now facing have in fact happened many times before, and fallen into a big cycle that repeat over and over again. OUR MISSION Our mission is to incubate the world’s largest SpaceTech ecosystem, to fuel the deep technologies race with smart capital and infinite CREATIVITY. To bring together people who look beyond the current limitations of innovation and to move us out of our comfort zones. Provide the leadership, impactful mindset, and vision to foster our next major leap forward, then take the first steps towards it. We live in a modern “Galileo” moment, so we better start looking at the velocity of innovation and realize what is unfolding before our eyes. OUR VERTICALS 5 Verticals of Investments in Space Tech & Deep ecosystems Quantum Computing: Quantum computing is a transformational technology. While it may not offer fundamental changes to what computers theoretically accomplish, quantum algorithms can process data and solve problems far faster than a classical computer. And here is where quantum computing will change our reality–speed. The ability to make what was once infeasible. This will open entirely new fields of data science and applications development. Longevity: Human life is precious. The average human lifespan before the mid-1800s was only 30 years. Now, the worldwide average is over 70. That’s more than doubled since the advent of modern medicine and other advances such as vaccines, food safety, cures for disease, hospice care, etc. When people live longer, they can do more. What if Galileo had lived to be 90? Or Descartes, Newton, Pascal? Human longevity will accelerate growth across all fields of scientific inquiry. Energy: According to The Potsdam Institute, to reduce the chance of the global temperature rising two degrees Celsius by 20%, the world has a remaining carbon dioxide budget of approximately 500 gigatons until 2050. Between 2000 and 2018, the world used nearly 400 gigatons. Our survival as a species will hinge on our ability to harness renewable energy. The good news is we already have the technology to start. According to the United Nations, the global sustainable energy infrastructure in most developed nations doubled from 2000 to 2018. However, it’s still far below where it needs to be; only 10% of the United States’ final energy consumption share is renewable, and most European countries are below 20%. Renewable energy is on the eve of a watershed moment–Fusion. Limitless wave action energy. Along with solid-state energy storage, miniaturized battery technology, dispersed power grid networks, these technologies are ripe for application by companies that will take humanity through the ecological bottleneck of fossil fuels into a bright future. Space Networks: Communication is the key to progress. The digital age didn’t necessarily start with the computer; the advent of electricity got the ball rolling. The ability to talk from one side of a country to the other at the speed of light allowed progress to reach new heights. Telegraphs, telephones, fiber-optics, and the related infrastructure lets billions of people interact daily. But now, 180 years after the first wired message from Washington DC to Baltimore, most telecom companies are trying to build a slightly better telegraph. We look at the 50% of the world population that is still not connected to the internet. Transportation: The speed of business relies on the speed of transportation. There have been leaps and bounds in the past, from the wheel and Roman roads to aviation. But the next evolution is an order of magnitude change. The majority of vehicles on the road could be self-driving by 2050, E-hailing rides, car sharing schemes, electric vehicles (EVs), electric scooters, drones and even autonomous buses are coming. These will require a data processing in a massive scale, together with automation and Cyber safety and at 100% connectivity.
