There is no generic template for success – huge variations by company/segments e.g. web vs. software vs. hardware vs. biotech/medtech

There are always exceptions

Successful companies/investments share many similar characteristics

People, people, people - the team we are backing is always key:-

– Vision, ambition, conviction, hunger

Product meets a need, TAM is sizeable - not a technology looking for a market

Routes to market

Competitive landscape

Business/Revenue model

Scalability – people, product and business model

Understanding of what it takes to create a winning product and a winning company
