Investment thesis
YGC focuses on solving industry-wide pain points in traditional sectors like transport, logistics, and oil & gas by building trusted, cloud-based applications that reduce operational complexity and pair with existing business processes. It emphasizes cross-enterprise data collaboration, convening stakeholders through an Executive Summit Series to discover and launch breakthrough applications. The firm seeks enterprise partners willing to innovate at the industry level rather than only for their own company, using incentive structures to foster long-term collaborations and incremental data advantages. Example ventures include Reinforce (fleet repair and warranty management with voice technology) and Hupbeat (an on-demand contractor workforce platform for oil & gas using blockchain).
