What do we look for?

Strong technical founders: Our first criteria is the quality of the founding team. In addition to favoring strong technologists, we look for a consistent past record of leadership success.

Diverse founders: We have had great success betting on immigrant founders, female founders and PhD founders. When a founding team contains diversity among the founders, we tend to lean in.

Cross-disciplinary approach: We believe that very large opportunities are created when two disciplines collide. Many of our top investments are in cross-disciplinary areas like autonomous vehicles and synthetic biology.
