High-Growth Emerging Mass Markets We like fast growing emerging markets where we can invest in a company that can achieve dominance. In addition, we are interested in new products and services that address large existing markets where companies with innovative technology are taking market share away from established players.
The markets we invest in are changing rapidly as new technologies emerge and as applications of existing technologies enable new segments to appear. While we realize that over time our investment themes change, these are the three major sectors we are currently focusing on.
