koko 𝑥𝑠

Hi, I'm koko 𝑥𝑠. I'm building NOVA NEXS.

Previously, I worked on the investment team at Lux Capital and as Head of Growth at Mach Industries. I studied Mathematics at NYU Courant where I graduated at 20 while working 10 jobs. I saved $140k from tuition and earnings, which I turned into a portfolio of 12 angel investments in my friends' deep tech companies. After 20 months, that portfolio was marked at 12x MOIC.

Today, I manage a $10m deep tech fund backed by Marc Andreessen, Chris Dixon, Kevin Hartz, Josh Wolfe, Lux Capital, and more, where I write early stage checks from $100k to $1m. I also cofounded MindCo, where we're solving non-invasive silent thought decoding.

My investments:

• Mach (Defense)

• Etched (Semis)

• Lemi (Robotics)

• Orbit (Neurostim)

• Morph (Agents Infra)

• Haize (AI Safety)

• Oligo (Space)

• … and more

My projects:

• Writings

• Guide To Deep Tech

• Deep Tech Research

• Old Website

My current intellectual musings:

• Prophet Engine

• Securitize Everything

• Weaponized Capitalism
