Investment thesis
Portfolio Ventures aims to be the co-investor of choice for early-stage founders, acting as an 'institutional angel' that leverages a large network of LPs, founders and investors. Through its PV Angel Fund and SPVs it invests in fintech and B2B software companies from pre-seed to Series A, writing cheques of roughly £200k-£500k and completing 15-20 deals per year. It has co-invested alongside more than 100 of Europe's leading VCs. For angel investors, it provides access to vetted, high-quality early-stage tech companies plus networking through workshops, roundtables and events to help build diversified portfolios.
