Thesis

First-check investors to exceptional founders building category-defining companies and to emerging venture funds reshaping the industry. Formation-stage specialists operating as partners from inception, not simply deploying capital.

Not interested in me-too companies, transactional founders, or teams primarily optimizing for exit. Avoid unfocused vision or weak co-founder dynamics.
