We see ourselves as service providers to our portfolio and aim to be a “go-to” board member for our portfolio companies. VALUE ENTREPRENEURIAL EXPERIENCE All of our partners have founded companies or have actively incubated companies as founding board members. We have empathy and a fundamental respect for the entrepreneurial experience. BRING A POWERFUL NETWORK OF CUSTOMERS AND CO-INVESTORS We cultivate and manage a network of more than 500 executives at major industrial and technology companies to assist our teams with product feedback, partnerships or potential customer relationships. Selling into ‘old-school’ industries takes both novel technology and novel business model approaches, as well as connections to forward-thinking early adopters. We connect our portfolio to a network that accelerates time-to-market and tests new ideas for young companies. OPERATE AS A TEAM We have worked together as a team for over eight years and have developed high-functioning, direct communications and processes to collaborate on investment execution and assist on portfolio work. Importantly, our journey together through both successes and failures provides us with a clear, shared view of what makes businesses successful. VALUE INTEGRITY AND TRANSPARENCY These values inform our behavior with each other, with investors, with portfolio companies, and with other stakeholders. We build value through trusting relationships with entrepreneurs and stakeholders. We hold ourselves to the same standard with every company and person with whom we interact: portfolio companies, competitors, other investors, and ecosystem participants. We are equally open about good and bad news. We don’t use information as currency. We strive to be apolitical. INTEGRATE WORK AND VALUES We back mission-driven teams. Our experience is that mission-driven teams who believe they will change the world for the better build more successful companies than mercenary teams. We are driven to have a positive impact, and we choose to work with companies that share those values.
