    If you and your company...

    • have a technology-heavy startup (preferably B2B SaaS)
    • based in CEE
    • are having customers internationally
    • are already making money (MRR: 20k+)
    • have the ambition to build the next unicorn
    • are looking for investment between 150k and 1,5M USD
    • are actively seeking a smart money investor to partner up with you on the journey to success
    • (by 'partner up' we mean that the control of your business remains with you. We are aiming for minority share and not interested in buyouts at all, cause we believe that success can only be achieved through motivated founders.)
