Taking a private equity approach to the VC landscape, they conduct 2 yrs. of research for a novel product or service, then build every company de novo and partner with a CEO who has an established track record. Their stringent and sustainable differentiation, and superior economic model, has yielded unparalleled net IRR returns since inception and created new tangential strains of investment opportunities that currently do not exist in the marketplace.
