Our Principles #

Bottom Up Analysis

Our deep ecosystem connections and knowledge of both investors and highly-qualified early stage companies enable us to develop strong viewpoints on the most valuable growth opportunities and the future of your industry.

Entrepreneurial Thinking

We have permission to view your business as a founder would – rethinking existing assumptions, looking past the constraints and spotting opportunities to recreate your propositions with technology at their core.

Commercial Rigour

We are expert at the rigorous commercial and operational analysis needed to build conviction on which opportunities to pursue and how.

Cross Industry Insight

We bring new perspectives, insights and lateral thinking that capitalises on our innovation, transformation and investment work across industries.

Delivery Focused

As entrepreneurs, we think of strategy as the guide to what needs to be built, not an end in itself. The delivery route is part of our mindset.
