LAUNCHub Ventures is a leading early-stage venture capital fund, supporting technology startups in the Seed and Series A funding stages. We invest in Central and Southeastern Europe (SEE & CEE), as well as in companies built by ambitious founders from that region who are based in the leading startup hubs around the world.
Our initial investments are between €300K and €2M, leading investment rounds up to €4M. We also have the capacity to continue supporting the funding needs of our portfolio companies in future rounds.

We are looking for scalable businesses with initial traction and passionate founders originating from South-Eastern Europe and the broader CEE region.

We are valued by our portfolio companies not just for the money we invest, but for the wide variety of assistance we provide to move a venture forward.
Many of our portfolio companies have already benefited from our 'Series A academy' program, helping them reach their milestones and successfully raise follow-up A rounds.
At LAUNCHub we don’t just "do business" with our founders, we’re partners on a journey to a brighter future.

Since 2012 we have been growing the CEE startup ecosystem and today we are excited to have some of the biggest VC firms in Europe and the US follow our investment into our portfolio.
