Thesis

Foundational industries (manufacturing, logistics, defense, energy) have been neglected for decades. Tech founders can unlock trillions in value by applying software, AI, automation, and cloud infrastructure to transform these sectors. This is the largest venture opportunity: tripling the Industrials market cap from $3.7T to $55T by 2050.
