We invest in the foundational technologies and founders powering the next industrial age. Exposition Ventures. Progress made probableTM
There’s something to be said for possibility.
Imagining the future and where technology might take us: possibility inspires. It captivates. But for all its magic, it’s really just “maybe.” Possibility can only go so far.
But probability? Probability makes things matter.
It’s why we founded Exposition Ventures®. To identify early stage technologies with a higher probability of being part of tomorrow’s industrial landscape.
To amplify that probability by bolstering the business.
To bring tomorrow into focus.
not because of the dreams that debuted there, but because of the stuff that stuck around: the zipper, the automatic dishwasher, safe electricity, and yes, George W. Ferris’ Wheel.
The Columbia Expo’s organizers – Schwab and Bunn and Richardson – were already making marketplace bets and they picked the attractions accordingly. They understood which inventions were probable, so the Expo became just a reflection of their critical, expert eye: a living POV on progress.
We know what’s probable for tomorrow.
We seek the opportunities that live down at the fundament of industry – tech that when nurtured will be foundational to the next industrial age: machine learning, quantum computing, robotics and more. The innovations that interest us are the ones that are most necessary because all future innovation will be built on top of them.
We bring an expert eye to their assessment, because our principals are experts: in the business of operations and finance and marketing, but also more specifically in the relevant subdisciplines inside engineering and science and technology.
We make it our business to help define a business around that solution.
We embrace what’s probable, while others are still catching up.
At Exposition, we’re transforming foundational frontier technologies into practical businesses.
Creating a portfolio of the probable.
