The Venture Factory model

How we build with founders.

Not a cheque and a board seat. A repeatable company-building system that carries founders from first investment to global scale.

  1. Smart Capital

    Lead-investor conviction from day one — initial tickets from €0.4–0.5M with follow-on capacity.

  2. Operational Support

    Hands-on beside the founding team — hiring, go-to-market, internationalisation, next-round readiness.

  3. Global Mindset

    The Spain ↔ Israel corridor — Madrid roots and Tel Aviv VC pedigree opening doors worldwide.

  4. Sustainable Growth

    Solid foundations built to compound — companies engineered to lead globally, not just raise again.

Six pillars: Solid foundations Hands-on approach Company building Expertise Lead investor Network
