Deep network and access
We leverage our exclusive partnerships with some of the leading European accelerators, incubators, and universities in order to identify the most promising startups as early as possible.
Precise classification
Once a company has been fully screened, we present it to our investment members. We use our scoring algorithm to introduce startups to relevant investors based on the sector, ticket size, and competencies.
AI-enabled screening
We leverage artificial intelligence to conduct a deep analysis of the value proposition, strategy, team, and financial aspects of each startup and consult with our network of expert advisors.
