Venture capital strategy should be iterative as the markets themselves: For this we deploy funds deal-by-deal, evolving thesis & approach over time, focusing on pre-seed/seed deeptech startups in UK & US. We maximize speed & network effects by combining investors who commit to all deals (LP-VC model), and who opt-in on select domain opportunities (syndicate-model)—yielding fast decisions and non-invasive due diligence.
