New Portfolio Additions | Pre-Seed Investment Fund - Britbots

We continue to focus on backing exceptional founding teams using robotics, artificial intelligence and other automation technologies to tackle the major productivity crises the world is facing namely:

1. Labour Crisis: How to grow despite global shrinking labour growth?
2. Productivity Crisis: How to grow despite falling global productivity growth?
3. Environmental Crisis: How to grow whilst decreasing reliance on carbon and negative environmental impact?
4. Resources Crisis: How to grow whilst reducing the pressure on already stretched natural resources?

As global consumption levels continue to rise, these pressures are likely to intensify. We believe that companies providing solutions to these problems will be able to generate durable returns and favourable valuations.
