The Vickers Investment Strategy
Our strategy is the result of decades of experience in venture investing.
Dealflow: We cast a wide net to source for category defining companies from a large and global deal flow.
Investing: We sieve and invest in companies with the best chance of success.
Growing: We provide our expertise and our time to support our founders and build strong businesses.
This is our strategy and our advantage.
Deal Flow
- Best of Vickers: Our strategy to double-down in companies we have cultivated, using later funds, where we know the team, strategy and have witnessed execution success in sectors that are still in the high growth stage. Best of Vickers is important for our risk mitigation strategy that sets a firm foundation for each fund’s portfolio.
- Macro View: Emphasis of portfolio construction following macro trends, draws on our investment committee’s experience and nuanced understanding of the big picture. This has been key to reduce beta risk because sound investments are not subject to trends and stand the test of time.
- Global Presence: We are a global team of diverse individuals with broad interests and deep knowledge and expertise across various deep-tech sectors to find the best technologies.
