Invest with the entrepreneur factor

Over 20 years of research, one proprietary model, and two ETFs plus two mutual funds built to find tomorrow's leaders.

Thematic Strategies

We don't chase trends. We follow leaders.

Most managers try to predict which industry will win. We hold a different view: find the entrepreneurial leaders, and the returns follow the innovation.

Representation of focused thematic investment strategy

Sector investing buys every company in a bucket. We buy only the ones run by founders who move the needle.

Proprietary model

OUR PROCESS

A portfolio built on the entrepreneur factor

Our model screens thousands of public companies, isolating those led by entrepreneurial minds driving measurable innovation and long-term compound growth.

CLIENT EXPERIENCES

What investors say about our research and process

We track how our model performs, but the real measure is whether it changes how people think about their portfolio.

The Entrepreneur Factor made sense in a way most investment models don't. It's rooted in how businesses actually grow, not just financial engineering.

I've been investing for 25 years. This is the first time someone showed me a system for identifying entrepreneurial leadership that's actually repeatable.

Thematic research that looks past quarterly earnings and into who's running the company — that's rare. Investorhive delivers it.

I switched from passive indexing. The Entrepreneur Factor portfolios have held up better through volatility than anything I held before.

20 YEARS OF DATA

Questions about how the model works

Practical answers on our approach, criteria, and how we identify entrepreneurial companies.

What makes the Entrepreneur Factor different from standard screens?

Most screens look at financials. We look at leadership structure, founder involvement, and capital allocation patterns. The Entrepreneur Factor isolates the traits that drive long-term outperformance.

Are your ETFs and mutual funds actively managed?

Yes. Our thematic strategies are actively managed using the Entrepreneur Factor model. We rebalance based on research signals, not calendar dates or index composition.

What kind of companies meet your criteria?

Global publicly traded companies where the founder or entrepreneurial leadership still drives strategy. We look for businesses shaping their industry rather than following it.

How often is the portfolio updated based on research?

Our research cycle runs continuously. We review holdings quarterly and adjust positions when signals shift. Major thematic pivots happen annually based on our long-term outlook.

Can I invest directly in the individual companies you identify?

Our strategies are available through our ETFs and mutual funds. This gives you diversified exposure to the full portfolio built by the Entrepreneur Factor model.

How does the model account for different market cycles?

The Entrepreneur Factor has been tested across multiple market cycles over 20 years of research. It is designed to identify companies with durable competitive advantages, not short-term momentum.
