Investment thesis
Ubiquity Ventures backs 'software beyond the screen' startups at the earliest stages, often pre-incorporation. It follows a 'nerdy and early' approach across three areas: low-cost smart hardware for enterprise sensing and actuation; machine learning applications for industries historically underserved by software; and supporting technologies such as developer tools, security, and perception tech that let software operate beyond computers and smartphones. The firm targets B2B companies transforming physical challenges into software problems, aiming at large greenfield markets with more effective solutions.
