Investment Thesis

Act Venture Capital is a long-term focused multi-stage investor that leads early and stays the course with founders, backing exceptional teams who truly understand their market. Their core belief is that great companies are built by great founders, not investors. They aim to ‘improve the odds to success’ by providing meaningful early-stage support rooted in real experience and helping founders turn an early spark into an enduring company through serial backing relationships.

What Sets Them Apart

  • Long-term partnership approach - backing companies from seed through Series C and beyond, with some serial founder relationships
  • Board-level involvement - they join the board and stay involved with capital and guidance at every step
  • Extensive experience - 140 companies backed with €600m raised across 6 funds, with decades of combined experience
  • Purpose-driven - explicitly positioned as agents of positive change backing founders with mission and values beyond financials
  • Diverse team philosophy - actively value diverse teams for stronger problem-solving and innovation
  • Disciplined and opinionated generalism - flexible across sectors but not everything to everyone
