Saltlight Capital is a specialist investment manager with longer than average investment horizons.Our flagship fund, the SaltLight SNN Worldwide Flexible CIS seeks durable and indispensable businesses across the globe. We deploy capital into a deeply-researched, highly-selective portfolio of incredible businesses with a single thesis: we think the world is undergoing a generational shift in digital adoption that will manifest in trillions of Dollars of future opportunity.Our investment process is solely orientated to the long-term where we find that there is minimal competition in thinking about the world seven to ten years from now. We are not focused on the next quarter, the next year or even the next two years. We typically target opportunities where the opportunity is misunderstood; durable growth is under-appreciated or the technical understanding is too difficult for generalist investors. This perception gap leads to very different perspectives between market participants and us.
