Our passion is to help entrepreneurs grow, win and stay in the game to achieve their own dreams. FOUNDERS BACKING FOUNDERS Swift Ventures is the fund that we wish existed when we were starting out -- a low-ego, sincerely helpful firm led by former founders who get it. With decades of company-building experience, Swift provides relevant and practical “garage-to-IPO” building and scaling expertise. While our firm is new, our team has been having fun going for it together as co-founders since 2006. We have “in the trenches” experience at building companies through every stage including IPO and acquisitions. We know what it’s like to be on top of the world one day and dealing with an existential crisis the next. We have rung the bell and know that getting there can be absolutely brutal on our bodies and relationships. Our mission and passion are to help entrepreneurs grow, win and stay in the game to achieve their own dreams. We are guided by the belief that there is no higher calling than creating something of value to the world from scratch. But overcoming the haters, incumbents and the status quo isn’t for everyone. The name “Swift” comes from our shared experience that while there are many paths to build great companies – the best entrepreneurs have the ability to build, learn and iterate faster than others think is possible. INVESTMENT FOCUS We invest in AI and Automation companies with B2B business models. Typically, we are looking for companies that have an early compelling product with positive revenue and retention signals. More than any focus or pedigree we value Founders that are bold and that have a high Do:Say ratio (and expect the same of ourselves)

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.

Our Community partners have already embarked on their own crazy race of creating a B2B SaaS, some with a favorable exit outcome, others with a failure outcome, this allowed us to identify a methodology to find challengers of tomorrow. Part of our strategy comes from the business needs of our partners, in a logic of innovation and rationalization of costs it is interesting to look at the case of new players Today our Community partners come from the digital world and together we pool our expertise to identify the hidden value of tomorrow’s challengers Type of assets we are targetingShares: Mainly focused on startups with high potential, one of the key elements in this type of asset is the analysis of the market potential as well as in the team which will be in charge of developing the concept User License: Mainly focused on projects having a Functional MPV and seeking to consolidate it by sharing it with their early adopters, our attention is mainly focused on the execution strategy and the impact of its companies.
