Pioneered the platform model, building the firm with two teams working for founders: investors who have built before (ex-founders and engineers) and a broader network.

Built on the conviction that software would eat the world and tech companies would become far more valuable than believed. They provide founders with much more than cash and advice by leveraging a network of ex-founders and engineers organized by vertical.
