As an investor in Technology and in Buy & Build propositions UMICO has a clear vision on the development of tech and science and its application in the real world.

Our world is changing rapidly and technological breakthroughs are happening daily. The world in 10 years’ time will be vastly different from what we know today. The coming together of a large number of new technologies is called Convergence. The interaction between these new technologies strengthens each in turn, bringing forth new possibilities in ever broadening areas of life.

All our investments rely, at least in part, on the implementation of the most promising technologies. Some sound familiar but will do things hardly anyone can yet imagine, some are brand new and seem to come straight out of the world of science fiction. No matter how far ahead these ideas may appear, they will become part of our lives much sooner that most will believe. To name a few of these developments;

• Artificial Intelligence
• Virtual Reality
• Augmented Reality
• Nano-technolgy
• FinTech
• 3D Printing
• Robotics
• Block chain technology

The advances in computing power speed, A.I., Big Data capabilities and an overall higher level of education all lead to an accelerated speed of development in al the above mentioned fields.

UMICO not only tracks all these developments closely but selects and invests in some truly unique technologies, companies and teams. This ranges from Private Equity investments to Early Stage opportunities. We work closely with management to grow companies and create value.
