Investment thesis
Maniv invests in the generational transformation reshaping how people and goods move. It focuses on two converging trends: a market-led energy transition driving decarbonized transportation across new vehicle platforms plus the materials, silicon and software to scale them; and the digitization of traditionally analog, data-poor physical industries such as automotive, transportation and logistics, where software, data and connectivity unlock efficiency and scalability. The firm brings deep, singular focus and domain expertise in mobility investing, along with a network of industry experts, fleets, suppliers and leaders across the transportation ecosystem, positioning itself as a hands-on lead investor for founders.
