    1. What is one of the most prominent trends in your industry? How are you leveraging it?<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      We are at the cusp of a fourth industrial revolution (4IR): the internet at high speed, IoT, the capacity to manage and understand and leverage big data, artificial intelligence, the power of networks, incredible discoveries in biology and genetics, etc. They are all transforming how we live and how we solve society\u2019s biggest issues. Disruptive change is constantly happening and at a very fast pace. Climate change, rising inequalities, and an economic system that generates negative outcomes are problems that will transform our lives and businesses if we do not address them. Innovation and collaboration are key to solving these issues, and we need to bet on the most transformative solutions that will have a positive impact. That is why, we invest in digital platforms and service companies that leverage data and AI to address these issues. We seek entrepreneurs that have correlated economic benefit with a powerful societal impact.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
