RunwayFBU is a platform that blends capital, community, and corporate collaboration to help founders scale and industries innovate, focusing on breakthrough industrial software. They invest in data-centric industrial software/hardware that makes heavy industry efficient, sustainable, and more resilient. Their approach involves providing early-stage capital, hands-on scaling support, a tech hub community within Aker Tech House, and an industry software alliance that bridges industry with startup innovation. They aim to turn hard tech into global companies by giving founders access to Aker's and their broader industrial network for real-world pilots and scale support. Their investment decisions are guided by criteria such as addressing high-value efficiency, sustainability, or resilience gaps in heavy industries, identifying domain-driven entrepreneurs with deep sector insight, global ambitions, early field validation, and defensibility through data or IP. RunwayFBU's vision is to help founders defy gravity and get their big ideas off the ground with positive and meaningful investment.
