SpaceTech, Dual-Use & Sustainability -VC
Our Growth Fund's mission is to invest in and guide companies that harness space-based technologies to solve earth’s most pressing challenges, from security resilience, to climate resilience and global connectivity, data intelligence, and sustainable infrastructure. Our mission is to unlock the latent potential of space technologies to address some of the world’s most intractable problems, whilst delivering superior returns to its LPs, through the focused application of capital and expertise. Portfolio companies are established businesses with access to short-term revenue growth via growing defence budgets, whilst also targeting hyper-scaling opportunities by applying their technologies and services to delivering real-world impacts. Space technology is capable of having a substantial impact in the defence sector, and on the impact sector in the following four ways: Sustainable & Efficient Food Production, Clean Water Access & Monitoring, Decarbonisation and Ending Deforestation. The Fund will invest in world leading growth companies between the stages late Series A to Series C.
Space is not distant. It’s dynamic, strategic, and deeply connected to life on Earth. At S4E Capital, we see space as a frontier of intelligence as a constant flow of data, energy, and innovation. Our role is to channel that flow into ventures that matter.
We operate at the intersection of:
• Space & Earth: bridging orbital innovation with terrestrial application.
• Technology & Strategy: combining deep tech insight with institutional discipline.
• Exploration & Investment: fuelling discovery with capital and conviction.

G Squared
San Francisco, United StatesFounded in 2011, G Squared is aligned to a fundamental shift – venture-backed companies stay private longer. As a result, private companies need both primary capital to continue their growth trajectory and transitional capital to provide liquidity to early investors, current and former employees, and other sellers. Positioned at the crux of this liquidity access challenge, G Squared partners with portfolio companies throughout their lifecycle using a fundamentally different approach than traditional VCs.
We invest in companies that challenge the status quo and demonstrate a clear path to superior returns, partnering world-class entrepreneurs tackling big problems. G Squared funds have invested in household names such as 23andMe, Coursera, Instacart, Lyft, Pinterest, and Spotify, and in the next generation of disruptors including Auto1 Group, Blend, Bolt, Brex, Capsule, Flexport, Impossible Foods, Toast, and Turo.
