Investment criteria

#1

highly scalable startups in growing markets

We focus on technology opportunities that will constitute future digital infrastructure and have significant market potential. We are geographically agnostic.

#2

seed & round A

We invest early in the stage to provide early-growth funding. We never invest pre-seed. We prefer startups that proved to be fundable with previous investments from the private invesotrs. Our ticket is up to 50.000,00 EUR with possible follow-up investment.

#3

post revenue

We do not invest in pure business idea. Come to us once you have proof-of-concept and start building your customer base. We consider customer data as a key information for our investment decision.

#4

fit & proper team

Suricate Ventures being privately funded means we have our “skin in the game”. That is what we also expect from founders of the startups – fully committed team of experts and entrepreneurial enthusiasts.

#5

syndicated investment round

We feel most comfortable when we invest in a syndicate with other VCs, business angels or other investors. As industry insiders we have built close relationships with the top-tier investors – VCs, business angels, private equity firms and institutional investors.

#6

sustainability, social responsibility

We invest in startups that have positive contribution to the planet and our society. When investing we follow ESG (“environmental, social and governance”) standards.
