At Shaking Founders, we invest in Europe’s most ambitious tech founders at pre-seed and seed stages. We believe in shaking up the status quo, backing B2B, AI, and marketplace startups that have the drive to redefine industries and become category leaders in Europe. We don’t just invest capital—we shake things up by partnering with founders, leveraging our entrepreneurial experience and network to help them scale faster and smarter. Europe has the talent, ambition, and market potential to build the next wave of global tech giants, and we are here to make that happen.

Project Europe aims to drive European innovation. It does not follow any existing political movements and will remain independent of political parties and ideologies. A core pillar of Project Europe is to encourage the next generation to take greater risks and make entrepreneurship a worthwhile endeavour in Europe. Project Europe Founders can move their businesses outside of Europe, or build a remote organisation across continents; our aim is to nurture the creation of tech companies with European roots. The vision for Project Europe is that it becomes an independent organisation promoting entrepreneurship at the grassroots level with more founders and partners contributing for future cohorts.
