Investing to shape a better world
WovenLight believes modern analytical techniques offer a new, powerful and more precise approach to value creation. Not only will these techniques create value at our portfolio companies, they will drive a reimagining of the entire investment lifecycle. The need for ‘next generation private equity’ is why WovenLight has been built on a radically different talent profile, investment process, technical capability and culture — and a proven record of success.
Principles
We address global challenges
The next decade faces major challenges: from technology integrating itself into every aspect of how every industry operates, to environment changes and climate imperatives. As a PRI signatory we are committed to responsible investment to tackle these global challenges.
Diversity drives our performance
Diverse people bring diverse experience, which in turn, brings the diverse approaches you need to solve tough problems. We are committed to building a hybrid investment and technology firm that will help rework and reskill businesses, so that they can be relied upon for future livelihoods
Always learning at light speed
Data is most valuable, not as a piece of singular analysis, but as a feedback loop. The most important investment we make in a business is embedding the capability to learn faster and the culture to apply new knowledge quickly and repeatedly.
