Our Story
Life across six countries on three continents, stories from 7 companies, time at Stanford and Berkeley, 5 successful acquisitions totaling $1B, helping raise capital over $180MM, and 15 years of partnership, mutual mentorship, and friendship - this, in a nutshell, is our story to date.
We’ve had the privilege of calling Silicon Valley home for decades—living through, and contributing to, the waves of global transformation that so often began in garages just down the street.
​
There’s always been something electric about the energy here—a unique blend of bold ideas, relentless ambition, and creative chaos. But over the last ten years, we’ve seen that spark catch fire across the globe. From Tallinn to Cairo, Singapore to Cape Town, the spirit of innovation has become borderless. What used to be a Silicon Valley phenomenon is now a global movement.
The pandemic only fast-tracked this evolution. In a world forced to adapt, innovation became not just a choice, but a necessity. And out of that necessity emerged a new era—multi-hub, decentralized, and rich with possibility.
As we continue to move forward, we find ourselves in a pivotal moment—one that calls on builders, thinkers, and leaders to reimagine, reconnect, and rebuild. This is a time of transformation in every corner of society: supply chains are shifting, customer behavior is evolving, capital is being reallocated, and the rules of engagement are being rewritten.
With deep roots in innovation, a global perspective, and a commitment to impact, we’re here to help you navigate and thrive in this new world. Whether you're launching your first startup, scaling a new venture, or transforming a legacy business, we’re ready to support you every step of the way.
Until then, we leave you with this:

The Uncommon
In times that test both will and way,
Some step back, some drift away.
But a few, resilient and true,
Rise higher—break right through.
And when they ask, “Who led the view?”
Be uncommon—let them point to you.
