We invest in early seed and pre-seed stages, offering tickets of up to €200k alongside co-investors. Our sector focus is broad, encompassing any industry, with a geographic emphasis on Central and Eastern Europe (CEE). FAQ At what stage do you invest? What do you mean by pre-seed? Ideally, we want to lead the first investment round in your company. Sometimes this is also referred to as an angel round. As for product development, we will generally want to see the MVP and some go to market story or traction. It is great if you can get those first five clients or sell the very first batch of your product prior to our investment. If getting traction is impossible, you still should have a story of progress and achieving goals in your startup. I feel like my company is too early/too late for you. Can we still talk? Sure, you’re welcome to reach out at any point. A lot of startups that we’ve invested in came to us too early, but because we could start those relationships and develop a mutual understanding, it was a lot easier to make the investment decisions later on. If you are too far down the road for us, but you believe we could add some value, feel free to reach out to us as well. We’ll definitely look into what we can do together.
