Ownership percentage only matters if value follows. The right company will make a small stake meaningful; the wrong company will make a large stake irrelevant.

On a principle you invest by

In their words

What are you looking for in an industrial tech founder?

People who combine ambition, judgement and execution, and who can build scalable products that shape what comes next in industry. Ultimately, we invest in the people building the future.

What did you do before Runway?

My background is in transactions, finance and auditing. I was also part of a team that built a company. A useful mix for investing.

What are you known for at RunwayVC?

Connecting the dots across investments, finance and whatever comes our way. Adding structure, staying on top of the numbers and keeping priorities clear.

What are you obsessing over right now?

Technology that changes industrial economics, with AI as a major driver. Lower costs, higher output and better capital efficiency. What matters is not the technology itself, but measurable ROI for the companies using it.
