SMID CAP Technology Fund Derived from the Greek word "ฮฑฮฝฮตฮบฮผฮตฯ„ฮฌฮปฮปฮตฯ…ฯ„ฮฟฯ‚" (anekmetalleftos), ANEK means "Untapped", reflecting our mission to discover and unlock potential value as long-term investors. At ANEK, Our strategy focuses exclusively on listed technology companies, particularly small and medium-cap firms that we firmly believe hold significant untapped potential. We strive to achieve superior returns by investing in high-quality businesses that possess a substantial economic moat, demonstrate strong double-digit growth, and exhibit superior capital allocation; all while being priced reasonably to provide a margin of safety. We are long-only investors and do not engage in market timing, derivatives, or leverage, as we believe in the power of patience and foresight over short-term speculation. Our confidence in the strategy runs deep; weโ€™ve placed substantial personal capital into the fund, aligning our interests with those of our investors and reinforcing true skin in the game. www.ANEKCapital.com
