Strategy & Portfolio
Inflection Investing
An investment strategy focused on identifying companies at the point where growth is about to accelerate dramatically.
Inflection investing targets companies at critical transition points — typically where product-market fit is proven, unit economics are improving, and growth is about to compound. The investor aims to enter just before the hockey stick curve inflects upward.
In Practice
The fund's strategy focused on inflection investing: companies at $2-5M ARR with accelerating growth and improving NRR, investing just before the growth flywheel fully activated.
Why It Matters
Inflection investing attempts to time the optimal entry point — after risk is reduced (PMF proven) but before returns are captured (valuation still reasonable).
VC Beast Take
Everyone wants to invest at the inflection point. The hard part is distinguishing actual inflections from temporary blips. Most 'inflection points' are just noise.
