“Our objective is to increase our brand awareness, to let entrepreneurs know that there is capital available for them. We would like to play an important role in building an ecosystem, which brings together investors, entrepreneurs and industry observers. so even if we won’t find an investment opportunity this time, it will offer us a chance to introduce ourselves to the entrepreneurial community and start a dialogue,” he explains.
Credo Ventures has raised its 20 million Euro early stage fund from private individuals. It aims to invest in the businesses operating in IT, internet and healthcare industries and which have a potential to grow globally.
The size of a typical investment is between 250k to 2 million Euros. Geographically the fund invests in Central and Eastern Europe, and would also look at companies operating in multiple locations (for example if the R&D team is based in Romania, whilst the key people reside in the United Kingdom).
