01F GPS
(Global Partner Solutions)
The 01F GPS Fund is a specialized private equity fund engineered to generate superior risk-adjusted returns by building and scaling international Joint Ventures (JVs). Our model commercializes proven, advanced Asian technologies in high-growth Asian and global markets through a unique, tripartite partnership structure.
Mission
Scaling proven technological innovations into global market leaders through execution partnership.
Our Thesis
The 01F GPS investment thesis is engineered to de-risk the traditional venture model. We believe a significant portion of venture outcomes is governed by two core uncertainties: technology risk (whether the product works at scale) and market risk (whether real, bankable demand exists). We systematically mitigate these risks through a structured, tripartite joint venture framework that aligns incentives and accelerates commercialization from day one.
The Tripartite Joint Venture Model
The fund operates as an intermediary and operational architect, coordinating three essential stakeholders:
01
Technology Partners: Providers of commercially validated, advanced technology (often from China/Asia) ready for deployment in new markets.
02
Local Corporate Partners: Established market leaders in target regions who contribute validated demand, distribution networks, and local operational expertise.
03
01F GPS: The venture architect providing the strategic framework, operational execution capability, and growth capital to form and scale the JV.
What Makes Us Unique
We are not passive financiers. We are active venture builders. Our uniqueness lies in our proprietary framework and dedicated operational team that executes the JV model end-to-end—from partner matching and entity structuring to go-to-market launch and scaling operations. We assume the execution risk and reward, ensuring all parties are perfectly aligned toward a common goal: building a market-leading company.
Investing Across the AI Value Chain
AI is a full-stack transformation, not a single market.
Our 5 focus verticals capture the key layers of this transition: Our sector focus reflects a systems view of the AI economy. We invest across the enabling infrastructure, control layers, and application domains that we believe will capture disproportionate value from AI adoption. AI drives demand for compute and intelligence. New Energy supports the power and thermal requirements of data center expansion. Security addresses the growing need for trust, resilience, and governance in AI-enabled systems. Fintech underpins capital formation, payments, compliance, and monetization. Robotics extends AI into the physical economy, where software intelligence converts into labor and productivity gains.
