Here, we do
more than Invest!
At the heart of innovation, as a venture firm, we don’t just build B2B SaaS companies, we co-create them.
We will be at your side at every step of the way until you make a ScaleUp.
We are co-founders
Build your startup at Starttech Ventures. We shall invest in you, we shall work for you, and we shall be at your side at every step of the way until you make a scale-up.
We are angel investors
We shall provide pre-seed or seed financing for your promising, early-stage startup, either alone or in cooperation with our international network of co-investors and the Hellenic Business Angel Network, and we shall stand by your side all the way until reaching the scale-up stage and beyond.
Success Stories
At Starttech Ventures we have demonstrated three times in less than ten years (with AbZorba Games, Epignosis learning technologies and Yodeck) that it is perfectly possible to build a successful company without raising any venture capital / risk financing (no other than founders, and in the case of AbZorba, angel investors)
How we managed to achieve this?
- By prioritizing customers over investors
- By going for real value (revenues and profits) rather than ‘paper’ value (high growth rates while burning huge amounts of cash)
- By treating our people as fellow human beings, with who we like spending time and working together and who deserve a fair share in the value they helped to be created
- By being open to learn by our own failures. And by the failures of others
- And, very importantly, by keeping our budgets tight. Luxury can wait, customers cannot
