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.

We are in the midst of technological shifts at a pace faster than ever before. Calculus VC capitalizes on these shifts to deliver returns and impact. We invest in the Series A and Series B stages of startups in the below sectors: FUTURE OF COMPUTING AND AI Continued advancements in AI will demand new developments in hardware and software. New computing materials and interfaces may emerge. Computing power may be more distributed, and the world will be infinitely more connected. These and more, are our areas of interest: Intelligence beyond language: We expect AI to understand quantitative models and physical phenomenon just as well as it understands language. Large Quantitiative Models are a focus for us. New hardware, materials, and architectures: We expect that demand for computing power will grow exponentially. Quantum computing, as well as distributed computing are expected to grow. We expect advancements in computing materials beyond silicon. Immersive and neural interfaces: These interfaces already exist, we expect they will become more mainstream. Spatial computing, integrating the physical world with digital environments may be our future. COMPUTATIONAL LIFE SCIENCES AND HEALTHTECH Breakthroughs in biology, materials, sensors, and data science are converging to redefine healthcare. Precision and personalization will take center stage as AI enhances how we detect, monitor, and treat disease. Areas of interest include: AI-First Therapeutics and Discovery Platforms: ML-powered platforms designing drugs and biologics via simulation, predictive modeling, and data-rich experimentation. Infrastructure for Programmable Biology: Tools that make biology engineerable – lab automation, bioinformatics, 3D bioprinting, next-gen diagnostics and R&D devices. Continuous, Data-Driven and Personalized Care: Wearables, medical devices, and diagnostics to deliver patient-centric care. These models turn users into real-time data streams, enabling adaptive treatment and personalized interventions. ADVANCED INDUSTRIAL TECHNOLOGIES As we expand the frontiers of possibility, we expect industry to evolve with intelligence, autonomy and environmental sustainability at its core. Areas of focus include: AI and automation in industry: Intelligent machines will optimize production, reduce waste, and enable new workflows. From predictive maintenance to robotic manufacturing, automation will power the next industrial revolution. We support startups enabling this vision. Land, ocean, and space transport and communications: We are interested in advanced materials, robotics, sensors, systems and software that will unlock new frontiers from deep-sea mapping to planetary missions. Resource efficiency: Building the future will demand large reserves of energy and natural resources. Technologies that can serve our energy, food, water, and agricultural needs while supporting a better planet are of interest to us.
