What we look for.

Five signals we over-index on. None are required, but the strongest companies hit three or more.

  1. 01

    Technical founders

    Engineers, researchers, or operators with deep domain edge — insight earned over years, not weeks.

  2. 02

    B2B infrastructure & applied AI

    Dev tools, data infra, agentic workflows, vertical software. Solving real operating pain, not theoretical problems.

    Core focus
  3. 03

    European teams

    HQ in EU, UK, or Switzerland. Global ambition from day one — we add the most value in our operating geography.

    Strong wedge, hard problem
