Our Values

Founders First

We put our founders & companies ahead of ourselves.

• When we have a decision to make we will act in the best interest of the Founders.

Go Big or Fail Forward

We aim high and do not compromise for less.

• We prefer ambitious projects with 100x return potential that have a risk of failure rather than 2-3x “certain return” projects.

Commit & Deliver Results

If you commit to a task or a project, deliver with high quality results.

• This value is about putting focus on “delivering results”. It’s not about checklist of tasks that you have to do, but doing your best to achieve the goals - often in a non-standard way.

Data Beats Opinion

Our decisions are driven by the numbers and data.

• When we have a decision to make we will look at the market data, benchmarks, and historical data to choose the right thing.
