Investment thesis
Woodstock invests around three theses in the Web 3.0 space. 'Convergence' targets infrastructure, Web 3.0 and AI, anticipating that technological growth will dissolve physical borders and bring cultures, communities, economies and governance closer globally. 'Financialisation' focuses on DeFi, based on the belief that financial architecture can be rebuilt without intermediaries and will extend into traditional use cases under greater regulatory oversight to solve real-world problems. 'Virtualisation' targets gaming and the creator economy. The firm partners with inspired, high-grit founding teams as a strategic investor that goes beyond capital to help build scalable, future-focused businesses.
