We invest in the space economy, specifically focused on unlocking the value in space technology stacks such as GPS, geospatial intelligence, and communications. We are actively investing out of our third fund and manage over $70 million in assets. Our sector focus enables us to be a true partner to our portfolio companies and unlocks significant value far in excess of our investment capital. The companies we invest in are shaping the future. The history of GPS provides us with a framework for understanding how space-based technology has become a platform for innovation on a global scale. Specifically, the development of technology layers on top of space-based infrastructure and the distribution of data for mass adoption, which help unlock thousands of unique applications.
