Our thesis

The physical and the virtual have been on a path of convergence ever since the first computer was invented.

But now, the technological baseline has developed enough for it to truly take place. At NGP Capital, we welcome this convergence and the magic it can create.

We believe the 2020s will be a decade of ‘The Great Convergence’–a decade that will produce the next generation of iconic technology companies.

We back early-stage B2B tech companies from Series A onwards in Europe, US, Israel and China across a variety of sectors.

Experience

Applications and use cases enabled by the Convergence

From industrial automation to immersive applications for enterprises to collaborate and connect with customers and employees. The Convergence of the digital and physical will create a more empowered human experience.

Example applications:

AI co-pilots, digital twins, immersive collaboration and productivity tools.

Infrastructure

Technology infrastructure powering convergence

The infrastructure upon which exciting new applications can be built, the tools to allow data to be processed and consumed, as well as the cybersecurity that allows the world to safeguardtheir data and identities.

Example applications:

XR developer tools, streaming data infrastructure, foundation AI, digital identity protection, edge computing.

Interaction

Devices and software that bridge the gap between the physical and the virtual

Devices that allow humans to access virtual environments, sensors that draw data from the physical world to build insights, and robotics that translate virtual input into physical output.

Example applications:

XR glasses, robotics, sensors, data capture technology…
