Applied Real Intelligence (A.R.I.) was initially conceptualized by its Founder and Managing General Partner, Zack Ellison, and is premised upon the following beliefs: Venture debt offers an opportunity for generating excess risk-adjusted return (i.e., 'alpha') within the fixed income markets given the strategy has excellent historical returns, is underserved, and presents tremendous growth potential. By creating access to minimally-dilutive capital for underrepresented regions, sectors, and founders who have been historically underserved, A.R.I. will supercharge broader economic growth. A.R.I. offers an immediately actionable opportunity -- not being met by others -- through its Senior Secured Growth Credit Fund, which seeks to provide investors with sustainable alpha, protection of capital, and portfolio diversification while also promoting the social good by increasing access to growth capital for North America's most dynamic startups.
