Providing the first growth capital for Swedish technology companies
VEQ invests in high quality Swedish tech companies in early commercial phase
Our philosophy
We invest in tech enabled companies with proven commercial traction and high defensibility
We look for founders who show grit, intelligence, and maybe most of all, integrity and a moral compass pointing in the right direction.
We are the opposite to other VC’s, catering to an underserved group of companies, that are not relevant for the classic hyper growth VC-model. We prioritize profitable growth and a sustainable business model, instead of growth at all cost.
We also work closely with our sister company VNTRS. Press here to read more about VNTRS, if you're interested in partnering with a venture studio.What we look for
Geography
We only invest in Sweden, where we have a strong brand and network across the country.
Tech
We only invest in tech enabled companies with strong defensibility, both hardware and software.
Commercialisation
You're in the perfect stage for us if you bringing in your early customers and can show that they're willing to pay. We need to see annual revenues between 0,5-10 mSEK before investing.
ESG angle
We invest in companies that we think make some kind of positive impact for people or planet.
Let’s meet up and take it from there
