I partner with founders ready to build something big.
Not ideas on a napkin — real companies with real revenue and a genuine edge. If that's you, you get an operator who has done it, not a passive cheque.

A live product or service, in the market, with real usage.

Revenue coming in; at, near, or on a credible path to profit.
04
Ready for the next level
A clear reason capital + operating leverage unlocks a step-change.
From pitch to scale.

Pitch your business — revenue, IP and where you want to get to.
We talk
If it's a fit, we go deep on the real problems and the opportunity.

Building in public.
Not there yet?
Be first to hear each new partnership — and the playbooks behind them.
Let's build the next big one.
Real revenue, real IP? You won't get a passive cheque — you'll get an operator in the trenches with you. Most won't qualify. You might.
