Investment thesis

Boost Heroes is an evergreen venture capital fund investing at the pre-seed and seed stages, supporting Italian entrepreneurs around the globe from day zero. The firm takes a sector-agnostic approach paired with a four-step structured assessment process, which it says allows it to remain flexible and responsive. Beyond providing capital, Boost Heroes emphasizes building long-term, trust-based relationships and views investing as fundamentally about people rather than money alone. Since inception it has combined its investor role with a wider vision for the startup ecosystem, running networking events and targeted initiatives such as its platform (the B Heroes ecosystem) to contribute to the growth of the broader startup system.

Cherubic Ventures

Cherubic Ventures is known for investing before a startup even launches or reaches product-market fit, often as the first institutional investor, while also setting aside half of its latest fund for follow-on support all the way through pre-IPO; it was also one of the first venture firms to operate as a solo general partner and has grown into one of the largest funds run that way. Founded by Matt Cheng, who previously built two companies that each reached over $1 billion in public market value, the firm was designed from the start to invest across both the U.S. and Asia, backing early breakout companies in places like Croatia, Bangladesh, Japan, and Taiwan in addition to the U.S., with its Taipei roots still central to its identity alongside its Silicon Valley presence.
