Turning Intelligence Into Infrastructure

An Investment Thesis for Resilient Industrial Systems
By Miss Money, Founding Partner

Industrial economies are undergoing a profound recalibration.

Supply chains are being regionalized. Energy systems are being redesigned. Infrastructure is under pressure to do more, with less, for longer. And beneath the surface of these visible transformations lies a quiet but decisive variable: capacity. Where it lives, how it’s valued, and who stewards it.

I know the next generation of industrial resilience will be built not just on physical assets, but on the underlying knowledge systems that govern them and connect them.

Connectivity Rooted in Intellectual Capital

Our first fund is an IP-focused investment vehicle structured to accelerate industrial capacity and financial innovation. We do not invest in growth-stage software companies or speculative unicorns. We work upstream, at the source of insight, with a thesis centered on tech transfer, proprietary research, and applied domain expertise in:

  • Energy transition technologies

  • Critical infrastructure systems

  • Advanced manufacturing processes

  • Supply chain and logistics innovation

The core investment thesis:

We invest in the next intelligence layer for capacity, optimized for human utility and planetary constraints, and grounded in compassion and dignity for all species.

This means funding the work that enables systems to adapt, absorb volatility, and increase productivity without externalizing harm. It also means treating intellectual capital and sustainable systems not as a byproduct, but as the primary asset class.

Our Method: From R&D to Real Assets

We source, evaluate, and structure opportunities that originate in undercapitalized intellectual domains: university labs, corporate portfolios, supply chain data systems, and succession-prone industrial operations. Our work is to:

  • Surface dormant or latent IP

  • Convert research and technical insight into usable, protected assets

  • Structure ownership in ways that allow long-term value to be shared, not extracted

  • Distribute capability across our portfolio and partners to build systemic momentum

We often work alongside founders, domain experts, and institutional partners, acting not as passive capital, but as co-architects of infrastructure-aligned value.

Influence and Framework

Our structure is inspired by the early venture philanthropy models, combining patient capital, long-term operational partnership, and a deep commitment to purpose-aligned accountability. We also draw from Jed Emerson’s theory of blended value: that financial, social, and environmental outcomes are not separate, they are co-produced, whether recognized or not.

By centering intellectual capital and sustainable systems, we make those outcomes visible, investable, and transferable across transactions, generations, and geographies.

Why This, Why Now

In the context of geopolitical fragmentation, capital constraints, and talent transitions in industrial sectors, the need for codified, defensible, and deployable knowledge systems has never been more urgent.
And we believe intellectual property built in service of real economies is one of the most powerful levers we have.

We are now actively meeting aligned institutions, operators, and LPs. If this thesis resonates with your work or mission, we welcome conversation.
