We founded Centripetal on the belief that connecting people creates magic. And so far, it seems like we were not wrong. Sure, we’re in VC. But we’re also entrepreneurs ourselves. We recognize the hustle it takes to be a founder. And what’s needed to succeed. Fair and straightforward is how we play, because we’re in this business for win-win-type of relationships. We invest across the whole entrepreneurial journey, and try to be close to the people we care about – be it entrepreneurs, investors or friends. We have been in business since October 2020, and since then averaged more than one investment per month. We are incredibly proud of the companies we are privileged to support, please check them out!
