As the industry’s leading business builder, we’ve launched nearly 200 trailblazing businesses, with a success rate that is unmatched industry-wide. Since our founding in 2014, we’ve partnered closely with 400+ clients – most of which are Fortune 500 organizations – to invent, launch, and scale innovative businesses that leverage and reinforce their core capabilities. The ventures we build with them are inclusive of both new, standalone companies, as well as those developed within the framework of the client organization. The growth and value realized through our corporate venturing work has even led clients to collaborate with us to build and launch multiple businesses. Through our end-to-end approach to innovation and business building, we provide our clients with the essential skills, tools, and knowledge needed to create a thriving business. Most importantly, we believe in the businesses we build, investing money, along with time, technology, and talent, to ensure their success from start to finish.

We are an early-stage venture capital fund for founders, backed by founders. We set up PROfounders in 2009 to invest in and support the next wave of entrepreneurs. We believe that investing is more than just a financial commitment – we aim to be partners through the hard times as well as the good times. Our focus is on European companies with disruptive models that leverage technology to transform and improve customer experiences. We invest at early venture phase - when the company is typically raising £/€ 1-3m to scale. We know that capital is a scarce resource. We also know that time is something that you can never have enough of. We respect the time of all entrepreneurs and we aim to be as efficient and productive with your time as possible, whether you are just setting out on the journey, or looking to raise money, or part of the portfolio.
