We believe Model Businesses are built around three core principles
- 01
Solve a real Human Problem
Successful companies need to deliver products that are 'need to haves', not just 'nice to haves'.
- 02
Unit economics that scale
Every business needs a clear path to profitability, enabling responsible growth and leading to financing options beyond just venture capital.
- 03
Deep sense of responsibility
Businesses should deliver value to all stakeholders, not just shareholders, taking care of employees, vendors, and customers alike.
