We focus on investing in Data and AI Infra opportunities, and seek mission-driven founders with unique technologies
We differentiate ourselves by leveraging domain expertise in product/tech to identify winners before signals become clear. Our founders have both deep investment and operating experiences in our target sectors. We are highly experienced in cross-border activities and have track records of helping our portfolio companies, including financing, recruiting and going to markets particularly in Asia.
Steven has been a great partner to us at MotherDuck. He has a unique take on the market, is great at recognizing patterns. and has helped push us to recognize opportunities outside of our comfort zone. He has also made excellent introductions to folks adjacent to our space who may not have otherwise been on our radar.

Eastlink Capital has been a great partner for StreamNative. Their support goes much beyond capital, as they understand early-stage open source and cloud native companies and leverage technical insights to help companies hone GTM strategy and scale. Eastlink was particularly helpful to us in opening doors through their strong network by nurturing connections to experienced executives and advisors. Steven and his team have been genuinely committed partners to the management team whom we can trust and count on in good or challenging market environments.
