Investment thesis
Forma Prime invests in the fundamental layers of technology rather than applications built on top of them, guided by whether others can use a company's technology to build future capabilities. It backs quantum technologies moving from theory to deployment across computing, sensing, and communications, with clear commercialization paths in areas like optimization and national security. In semiconductors, it targets next-generation architectures, advanced materials, and enabling technologies that improve performance, energy efficiency, and supply chain resilience for AI and high-performance computing. It also invests in advanced sensing — quantum-enabled sensors, RF, and photonic systems — prioritizing vertically integrated, scalable platforms aligned with U.S. and allied strategic priorities.
