Kintsugi 金継ぎ means literally, "to join with gold", it treats breakage and repair as part of history, rather than something to disguise.

We look for:

- Exceptional technical founding teams with domain expertise

- Brave enough to re-imagine entire industries enabled by recent advances in technology (with a focus on AI/ML, crypto, open source, web 3.0, robotics, developer tools)

- Developing unique IP (patents, data assets) and harnessing data network effects to create sustainable competitive advantage

We also like to have fun because life is short 🧗🏼‍♂️🚵🏄🏼🏊🏽‍♀️

I swim with dolphins 🐬*

*Literally and figuratively. I love animals and swimming including with dolphins. I also like working with people much smarter than I am to learn from them, I've done this my entire career. To name a few... as a co-founder (Rob Fitzpatrick, Simon Chan, John Spindler), as an academic (Prof. Isabelle Szmigin, Prof. Deborah Streeter, Dr. Dave Chapman, Prof. Philip Treleaven), as a venture capitalist (Dave McClure, Philip Moehring, Anu Pathria, Parker Thompson, Chris Mairs, Wendy Tan White, Leila Zegna, Chrys Chrystanthou, Mark Evans) and in life (my beautiful wife Sonia Halal Azat).
