US Opportunities Fund II provides investors with exposure to hard-to-access mid-to-late-stage private equity across the United States of America, sourced through Auctus Investment Group’s longstanding and trusted partnerships. USO II will be a A$200m fund with 8-10 direct investments, the first two being De-Ice and Encharge AI.

Out of Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), De-Ice has developed and patented a novel method for electrically heating materials that have otherwise been very difficult to heat. De-Ice is first applying this technology to on-ground aircraft de-icing to eliminate chemical spraying and the associated departure delays. The company will then apply its technology to other applications such as wind turbines.
