The Bolt approach
Early conviction.
Active ownership.
We back businesses solving meaningful problems and stay close to the work of building them. CUDO and JAAQ are the focus of that approach, from our early involvement to their next stage of development.
Two businesses.
Distinct needs.
CUDO develops the sustainable computing infrastructure needed to train and run AI. JAAQ combines mental health content, digital engagement and clinical governance to help organisations support their people.
Each business has its own leadership, customers and commercial priorities. Bolt contributes capital, experience and relationships, with direct board involvement through our managing partners.
Early conviction
Backing CUDO and JAAQ at their seed stages gave us a close understanding of their businesses, leadership and opportunities.
Active involvement
Our managing partners contribute board experience, financial leadership and practical support with the decisions that shape growth.
Long-term value
We support company development and relationships with institutional capital providers, strategic partners and potential acquirers.
From early capital to business building
A history of
practical involvement.
Seed-stage backing
Bolt supported both companies from their seed stages, helping them access capital and establish the foundations for growth.
Leadership and finance
During their seed-stage growth, Bolt led fundraising and finance functions for both businesses and helped recruit senior leadership and board talent.
Supporting the next stage
Our involvement continues through board representation, financial discipline and close relationships with the leadership teams as they develop their businesses.
A network with
operating perspective.
Bolt’s network spans technology, finance, healthcare, consumer businesses and elite sport. Its contribution lies in judgement, relevant introductions and experience of building and leading organisations.
