S&P Ventures: The Flywheel Effect
S&P Ventures is an emerging fund and utilizes a unique investment strategy called the flywheel effect. We focus on identifying diverse asset types that, when combined, generate synergies greater than the sum of their parts without compromising the risk profile.
We are activist investors who work very closely with their portfolio companies to engineer success. We primarily target healthcare/life sciences, tech, and real estate.

Approach
Our approach is based on the observation that the combination of different asset types and classes create a flywheel effect that has a compounding return on investment.
Philosophy

Conclusion
The Flywheel effect is a distinct strategy that represents how we deploy capital and gives us an unfair advantage when adding value. We engineer the success of our investments from the beginning, stack the odds in our favor and relentlessly execute to drive the highest possible returns for our investors.
