Our Services
Cutting-edge technology breakthroughs and strategic thinking
Since 2000, we've co-authored several technology patents, including three patents related to the world's most advanced secure web browsing and secure DNS networking technology. We co-founded and funded Authentium (later SafeCentral), one of the leading providers of desktop security software. More recently, we've advised mobile payment technology leader Mozido on branding and corporate strategy, and guided internal combustion innovator Yan Engines on business planning and fund-raising.
During 2011, we helped launch three exciting new companies - Heardable.com, the "Dun & Bradstreet of online brand health" (Walmart.com), VIREO Broadband, a low-cost, high bandwidth broadband overbuilder launching in 81 US markets, and LenderExchange.com - the leading source for comprehensive data on hundreds of US and Canadian lenders. So far, in 2012, we have made three more investments in early-stage companies in Asia, the US, and Australia, that we believe have tremendous potential.
