Investment thesis
Allusion operates across infrastructure, ventures and community. Its infrastructure arm finances and deploys server and GPU compute in top-tier data centers, and was Belgium's first Internet Computer node provider. Allusion Ventures backs early-stage founders re-architecting foundational systems in digital infrastructure, health tech and energy, writing first cheques and staying close as an active partner. It focuses on pre-seed and seed rounds, Europe-first but globally curious. Beyond venture returns, the firm also supports cooperative and community ventures for reasons that are not purely financial, and helps power the Internet Computer community in Belgium.
