Byld Ventures is an early-stage fintech fund backing the best founders in the Middle East and Africa. WHO WE AREWE LOVE WHAT WE DO: We are your most responsive investor. WE ARE COMPETITIVE: We resemble the founders with whom we back: restless with an abnormal desire to win. WE ARE OPTIMISTIC: We’re comfortable with the unknowable’s and focus on what can go right, as opposed to what can go wrong. HOW WE INVESTWE INVEST EARLY: In most instances, before a line of code has been written. WE ARE NIMBLE: We prefer to lead rounds. We move quickly and avoid unnecessary diligence. WE ARE ACTIVE: We tend to work best with technical and resourceful founders that are yet to ship.

Dedication, Sweat and Tears. The life of a champion and the realities of entrepreneurship. Founders face many of the same life changing experiences and emotions as athletes. Much like luge racers, founders moving fast, encounter sudden twists and turns , and have to plan their course while in motion. They have to manage risk, overcome fear and thrive on an insatiable desire to win. They strategize, compete with all their energy and push beyond their limits. At Luge Capital, we seek these rare trailblazers in the financial industry. We help these daring and crazy entrepreneurs build global fintech champions. We invest in Seed and Series A, when companies are still planning their course. We believe we can help most by getting involved early, when you can’t see the finish line and the odds are not always in your favor. We’re in the trenches with you from the beginning, when you need us, using every tool in our arsenal. When we invest, it’s for the long term. Your success is our success. Great teams can do great things. We seek passionate teams who are eager to challenge the norms with better ways of delivering financial services, who think big, whose ambition is to solve real problems that affect people globally. We seek out the resilient ones, the agile and the relentlessly optimistic. We search for those who have unique insight about a global market and an unfair advantage. As founders, operators, and investors, we know what it means to walk in your shoes. We understand the sacrifice and dedication it takes to build a global champion. The journey is tough and sometimes lonely. We believe in treating your team the same way we treat ours: with respect, transparency, honesty, and empathy. To help portfolio companies grow, we collaborate with world-renowned financial institutions and investors that provide industry insights and resources. Our strategic LPs can become customers, partners, advisors, co-investors and even future acquirers of our portfolio companies.

We partner with sector-defining founders across Europe to create new technologies that disrupt the status quo and solve the problems that matter. Powered by a relentlessly driven ethos that never stops seeking to push boundaries, we foster deeper, actively personal relationships with our partners that drive opportunity, innovation and scale. As a network of hands-on experts – we’re united by a progressive world-view and a pioneering ambition to make a difference. While our fluid, open approach to each opportunity helps make sure we’re able to bring a bespoke service to every single member of our diverse and dynamic portfolio.
