Investment thesis
Horizon Capital invests growth and expansion capital in fast-growing, export-oriented companies in Ukraine, Moldova and the broader CEE region, leveraging the region's cost-competitive advantage to generate global revenues. The firm backs strong companies led by visionary entrepreneurs, focusing primarily on technology and export champions, as well as select domestic leaders. Its newer Catalyst Fund targets minority investments alongside lead partners in Ukraine's essential asset-heavy sectors such as energy, digital infrastructure and construction, addressing the critical equity capital shortage tied to reconstruction. The firm emphasizes transparency, integrity, strong corporate governance, and responsible investment aligned with ESG and IFC standards.
