Investment thesis

Cerulean believes AI will complete the digital transformation that software initiated. The firm focuses on backing AI/ML companies targeting stubborn, under-digitized physical-world industries that have historically resisted startup disruption. The firm seeks founders who can survive and thrive in these complex sectors as they begin adopting data-driven business models and digital transformation.
