Our ambition extends further - we are building a broader investment platform encompassing a Fund of Funds, growth vehicles and beyond.\nWe currently invest across three interconnected verticals - Food, Agriculture & Land Use; Heavy Industry; and the Built Environment, specifically in Advanced Materials & Molecules, Waste Valorisation, and Robotics with a focused thesis that the physical economy is undergoing a once-in-a-generation transformation, and the best deep tech companies are being built right now.
