We find and invest in exciting new discoveries from our university network that can enhance people’s lives.
We believe that when you couple compelling University IP with experienced management returns on invested capital will outperform the sector and exits will occur faster. The group’s goal is to distribute a portion of the proceeds as a special dividend to our shareholders on successful material exits.
