Team

Operators first. Investors second.

Six people across four offices. Everyone here has built, sold or run something before they invested in it — which is why we tend to be useful on the days that are going badly.

    Founded the firm in 2014 after eleven years building and running product organisations. Leads our enterprise and healthcare practice and chairs the investment committee.

    Previously: VP Product, Atlas Systems

  • Daniel Okonkwo

    Partner, Infrastructure

Careers

Join the firm.

We hire rarely and slowly. When we do, we look for people who have built something themselves.

Building something early?

Send a short note. Every message is read by a partner, and we reply within two business days — including when the answer is no.
