Investment Thesis

What We Invest In

Enterprise Software Modernization

We back founders replacing the systems that run global operations.

We invest at Series A and B in teams building modern replacements for legacy ERP, disconnected workflows, and brittle integrations at companies processing trillions in revenue. Typical check: $8–15M led. Our portfolio here includes Novaframe and five exits. We look for founders who can survive enterprise procurement, security reviews, and ten-year customer relationships.

Enterprise software workflow
Cloud Infrastructure & DevOps

We lead rounds in the layer being built above the hyperscaler.

We back pre-Series B teams working on security posture management, multi-cloud orchestration, developer experience at scale, and compliance-aware infrastructure. Typical check: $10–18M led. Portfolio companies include Tectrix, Veracode Systems, Heliosync, and Fluxguard. We have been investing in this window since 2015 and believe the category-defining companies are still being formed.
