The businesses that generate the most spectacular returns are small companies that become big. At GSV, our objective is to identify and invest in the Stars of Tomorrow—the fastest-growing, most innovative companies in the world.
Our top-down perspective focuses on megatrends, or the technological, economic, and social forces that develop from a groundswell and eventually disrupt the status quo. We believe that understanding today’s megatrends provides us with a road map to where future market opportunities are developing. Our bottom-up analysis is centered on the Four P’s—People, Product, Potential, and Predictability
We have identified 250 private companies that are poised to become the next Unicorns of the world. One of the characteristics of great companies is that they are systematic and strategic in how they operate their business. Only when all Four P’s are aligned can a company realize sustained long-term growth.
