A New Breed of Innovation Funds
GenInnov challenges conventional investment norms. We are not limited by sector, geography, or traditional thinking
AN OPEN LETTER FROM OUR FOUNDER
A Global Fund for the World’s Most Transformative Innovation
GenInnov invests in structural breakthroughs reshaping industries and nations from semiconductors and robotics to biotechnology and embedded intelligence.

Our edge lies in identifying innovation early, not only where it’s most visible, but where it’s most impactful across geographies, technologies, and sectors. With a research-first, principles-led approach, we back ideas that scale, endure, and define the future.

We frame our investments around long-term megatrends  from agentic AI to physical intelligence  and the rise of a Fourth Macro Sector, where intelligence becomes a design primitive in every object.
