Investment thesis
The firm pursues an 'X-disciplinary' approach to exploration, investment and acceleration, organized around a 'Human 3' concept described as a new epoch of health, wellbeing and performance. It has invested across two funds and is notably open to backing couple cofounders, which it views as an advantage rather than a red flag.
