BACKING EUROPEANDEEP TECH FOUNDERS

If you’re a technical founder who's struggled to explain your tech and vision to
investors, we set up a fund for you. We invest pre-revenue to help turn your
science fiction into reality.



We care about your code, not your sales pipeline.

We like to work with founders as early as we can:

 * €300K - €1M initial investment
 * into technical teams with strong R&D backgrounds
 * building with ♥ in Europe products that will sell globally
