We start, bank and build new ventures….from the idea stage to the world stage. What were once startups are today. Our ventures today are world leaders in genomics, communications, mobile technology, healthcare, open innovation and artificial intelligence. By networking with smart entrepreneurs, engineers, scientists and obsessive missionaries, we play a seminal role in creating one-of-a-kind opportunities to make the world a better place.
Our edge comes from a universally recognized brand and an unparalleled record of discovering big ideas and helping pioneers develop world-leading companies.
If you’re good enough for Thomas Edison, you’re good enough for me.”
