Investment thesis
Mangrove Capital Partners describes itself as a contrarian, bold and patient venture capital firm focused on early-stage technology companies. It backs founders with a long-term view, willing to look beyond the technology to understand the underlying business and support entrepreneurs closely, often as a company's first institutional investor. The firm concentrates geographically on Europe and Israel, deploying capital evenly between the two regions. Its stated success drivers include performance, diversity and a commitment to employee stock options. Mangrove has been an early investor in several unicorns such as Skype, Wix, Flo Health, WalkMe and K Health.
