Backing technology, software, and IT ventures with genuine technical understanding, not just financial models.
Technology is the engine beneath much of modern value, and we invest in it as both a sector and a source of advantage for the whole group. We back technology, software, and IT ventures with strong fundamentals: real products, capable founders, and a credible path to durable returns. Because the group runs its own technology and AI capability, we assess these investments with genuine technical understanding, not just financial models, which helps us tell substance from hype. Our involvement is active where it adds value, supporting the businesses we back with capital, networks, and operating experience. Technology moves quickly, and we respect that pace while staying disciplined about the fundamentals that ultimately decide outcomes. We are equally interested in ventures that strengthen the group’s own capabilities and in standalone opportunities with strong potential. The aim is a technology portfolio that compounds, both financially and strategically, as the companies we back grow and connect into the wider group. Where strong technology meets sound business, we can bring more than money, and that is precisely where we prefer to invest.
