Olienzo concentrates its work on two related areas: technology, and built assets. Both are approached as long-held positions, both are informed by the principals' operating experience, and both are conducted with the same patient discipline.
The firm publishes only what is useful. The two areas described below are the ones in which Olienzo commits its own capital and its own time today, and in which the principals can speak from direct operating experience rather than at one remove.
Each area has its own page. The shape of the work is similar in both cases: a small number of long-held positions, sized on conviction, and supported by the firm's network and standards rather than by breadth of activity.

Where particulars are useful in the course of a serious commercial conversation, they are shared at the appropriate stage and with the appropriate party.
