In our investment strategy, we pursue the goal of bringing our portfolio firms into profitable growth through scalable business models. We believe that companies should generally pursue a strategy that is geared towards generating profits in order to be successful in the long term. We are very wary of a business model that has to shimmy its way from funding round to funding round while diluting legacy shareholders and partners without following a clear monetization roadmap. Accordingly, we always work with our management teams in the individual investments against the backdrop of this conviction.
