Hermenica Capital
Across hubs. Across disciplines.

The Supernetwork

Every investor claims a network. Ours has a structure, and it has a record.

The kernel

A global trading people

At its core sits one of the oldest trading peoples in the world. The Armenian diaspora carried goods and credit between empires for a thousand years; today it is a dense web of founders, scientists and investors in every technology hub that matters. Density is the point. It means a warm introduction into almost any room, and a candid reference from someone with a reason to be honest with us.

The branches

Professional networks, layered on

Around that core, each partner and advisor adds a professional network of their own: Oxford, Harvard, McKinsey and Accenture alumni; Silicon Valley operators; deep tech circles in Boston, London and the Bay Area. A domain expert is one call away from nearly any diligence question.

We call it the Supernetwork.

What it does, at each stage of a deal

Drawn from thirteen years of investing by this team.

  1. 01

    Sourcing

    Early access to a Harvard spinout through a long relationship with its head of commercialisation.

  2. 02

    Diligence

    Inside knowledge of organ transplantation from a leading US hospital specialist, introduced through a medical association.

  3. 03

    Building

    A UK company's entry into the US, opened by one introduction to a commercial attaché in Chicago.

  4. 04

    Liquidity

    A global VC brought into a Series A, then a partial sale of our stake to that same fund at twelve times cost.

  • Boston
  • New York
  • Chicago

Global does not mean everywhere. We invest in the hubs where the network runs deep — across the US and Europe, and selectively beyond.

The kernel has a home

We source the world's most disruptive science through the network, and we bring part of the work home: R&D teams, clinical studies, pilot deployments in Yerevan. Local talent works inside the most advanced ecosystems, and the country builds lasting capability.
