Kilonova Capital

About

We invest in control and non-control situations across a range of transaction types, including growth equity, low leverage buyout, and structured equity or debt investments.

We work in partnership with management and existing shareholders to develop an investment structure to best position the company for growth, value creation, and the alignment of collective interests.

We structure our investments to match companies’ strategic priorities, and we work with management teams to develop long-term strategic roadmaps that will help unlock value.

We like to invest in companies undergoing business transformation or experiencing structural and capital impediments that we can help solve. Our creative and flexible capital can provide financing solutions to companies that may be non-conforming for traditional venture capital, private equity, or venture debt investors.

We are patient investors focused on long-term value creation and look for opportunities that leverage our strengths: creative and flexible financial expertise, a deep understanding of technology, and extensive operating experience.

Redbus Ventures

We are investors and operators searching for opportunities to back other entrepreneurs or buy businesses which are in need of digital transformation. We understand that some great businesses can take time to flourish. We are not afraid of down rounds, businesses in distress, or even in administration. We are not obsessed with unicorns, we are obsessed with great businesses or businesses that can be great. Sometimes we invest for small minority positions in companies with which we have little involvement. Other times we take controlling stakes in businesses we fully manage. We stick to our knitting and only invest in businesses we understand.

Corecam Capital Partners

We target private investment opportunities alongside our investors and provide access to our proprietary deal sourcing. All investments are structured in-house by our team of investment professionals located in Zurich, Vienna, Singapore and Ho Chi Minh City. Investment Focus Our focus is on Private Equity, Real Estate and Venture Capital. Corecam invests opportunistically across the entire capital structure. Our investment sweet spot allows for attractive entry multiples, as it is too large for individuals and too small for institutional investors. Private Equity: We focus on mid market companies in uncorrelated industries that are supported by secular growth trends such as software, health care services and technology enabled business services. Together with our partners, we seek to invest in cash generating and recurring businesses, with the potential to pursue a dedicated buy-and-build strategy with a clear geographic multiple arbitrage. Real Estate: In Real Estate we have historically been focused on affordable multi-family, senior and student housing, as well as commercial and opportunistic real estate transactions. We have a strong track record in development and value-add investments globally. Our portfolio spans across the United States, Australia, Germany, Spain, Vietnam, Austria, United Kingdom, Switzerland, Philippines, India and Korea. Venture Capital: We allocate capital to established startups and specialized Venture Capital funds with top tier track records. Corecam’s investment focus lies in uncorrelated business models. Typically B2B companies with a high share of recurring revenues. Over 60% of Corecam’s current Venture Capital portfolio is focused on software companies. We seek high growth, high margin business models partnering with entrepreneurs, who are building technologies for the next generation. Special Opportunities: Thanks to our proprietary network of investors and partners we have access to a wide range of private market opportunities. Our execution speed and structuring expertise allow us to flexibly participate in such investments. This has led to opportunistic investments into infrastructure, pre-IPOs, IPOs, privatizations and targeted non-bank lending.

Arconic Capital

Most people only see a paradigm shift after the fact, not the incremental steps taken to get there. At Arconic, we focus on the delta. We believe growth is never a product of any one factor alone. It’s the incremental improvements; the intelligent interventions and the strategic connections that drive exponential returns. When these pieces come together, everything shifts. The growth compounds. The trajectory arcs up and to the right. The whole becomes greater from the sum of its parts. At Arconic, we believe greatness is Intelligible, incremental, measurable, accretive. AI accelerated technologies will reshape how business gets done. It has shaped our ambition, and the necessity, to build a new technology focussed private asset investment manager, built like a tech company. While we draw on over 40 years of experience and heritage as leading operators and investors, Arconic will combine AI and data driven techniques to provide actionable opportunities, optimise returns and build an efficient platform. Our initial Fund, Arconic Venture Fund I, will invest and partner with the next generation of category defining B2B and Enterprise leaders that will redefine industries.
