Picus Capital operates with permanent, evergreen capital that allows them to hold positions much longer than most VCs and combines venture investing with active company building, co-creating companies from scratch with founders including ideation, validation, and early operational build-out rather than only backing existing startups. The firm maintains unusually broad global coverage with on-the-ground teams across Europe, the U.S., Latin America, India, Southeast Asia, and MENA, while publicly positioning itself as contrarian about valuation hype by emphasizing disciplined entry prices and fundamentals-driven underwriting even in aggressive markets.
