About
Volve Capital is a venture capital firm working from an office on the Valeriusplein in Amsterdam. It invests at pre-seed and seed stage and describes itself as a company's first professional investor, taking the lead or co-lead position in the round. Its published criteria are a generalist technology focus, a contribution now or in future to one or more of the Sustainable Development Goals, an initial investment of 200,000 to 500,000 euro with follow-on of up to 1 million, and companies in the Benelux, the German speaking countries and the Nordic countries, with a stated preference, not a requirement, for ventures based in the Netherlands. The firm says it was built and is backed by entrepreneurs who have sold companies of their own. Beyond money it offers portfolio companies a team it calls Operating Partners, who work with them on data, technology, growth and people, and it has an advisory board of experienced investors and entrepreneurs. Its portfolio covers digital businesses in several markets rather than one sector.
