Scaling a factory is a solvable problem.

01

We have no shortage of breakthroughs. We have a shortage of factories that make them at scale.

02

Scaling is learned by doing. Somebody has already solved the problem you're about to hit. The hard part is finding them.

03

Investors don't lack money for factories. They lack the standards to price the risk.

04

The help exists. It's spread across hundreds of people and dozens of places that don't compare notes.

05

The patterns repeat across sectors, so we look across all of them. And we study what failed as carefully as what worked.

What we do about it

We help turn belief into a factory build by getting operators together.

01

Share what
works

The group pools what it knows and spots the problems worth solving together.

02

Build the standards

Common language and metrics, so a first factory can be assessed and financed.

03

Engage on
policy

Working with policymakers on the conditions that let people build.

04

Connect to incumbents

Putting the know-how and infrastructure of established producers within reach.

Who we are

People who have built, run and financed production plants.

Founders, operators and investors who have done this before, and are here for whoever is doing it next.
