Pilatus is a venture capital firm driven by innovation.
We seek to join forces with early stage enterprises that develop high-impact technologies with global reach. We aim to provide guidance to perfect, protect, and commercialize these innovations. Even uphill.
FROM INNOVATION TO VALUE CREATION
Our investment approach centers on the technology above all. We believe that innovative technology is the fundamental building block upon which businesses are built.
We partner with early-stage enterprises and help them develop and commercialize their high-impact technologies. In doing this we enable our partners to profit from these applied innovations and create global impact. Our investment thesis is based on groundbreaking research from Professor David J. Teece on Profiting From Innovation and our operating framework is guided by Dynamic Capabilities, published in his latest book.

Above all, we are interested in technological innovation and are always curious about new ideas on the horizon.
