We believe in founders
We’ve sat in your seat and we know how hard it can be to build a global company. We’ve founded a tech company, scaled it globally and acquired two other companies. We’ve sold into enterprises around the world and raised money from big names VCs on three continents. We’ve had successes, failures and everything in between. We believe founders need experienced operators in their corner.
We believe in the world
We invest in the US, UK and Europe, and look for the best companies headquartered in these markets. We have bases in New York, London and Switzerland that support our investment strategy and portfolio. Our team carries many passports, speaks many languages and brings global experience to help you scale throughout the world.
We believe in energy
Energy demand will grow 18% by 2050. The energy transition requires $4 trillion of capital. Energy security is an imperative. We must grow energy output, modernize our grids, reduce use and change how we power the world. It’s a tall order. We believe exceptional energy tech entrepreneurs, great products and capital can make it happen.
We believe in technology
We live in a time where advances in AI, large language models, edge computing, blockchain, hardware and energy technologies creates the opportunity for unprecedented decarbonization solutions and building large companies.
We believe in AI
We believe we can help
We believe in excellence
The AI era is here and it needs energy. An AI query consumes 10x the amount of energy of an internet query. By 2030, data centers will consume nearly 10% of US power – and a single data center for AI will consume up the energy of 800,000 homes. We believe AI will touch all parts of our lives, transforming and driving future energy markets.
