Investment thesis
ROCH Ventures focuses on the new era of travel and hospitality, targeting tech companies positioned to redefine their categories and become global leaders. The firm's thesis rests on three drivers: shifting travel habits toward all-in-one, experience-based platforms; travel-tech transformation via generative AI, biometrics, blockchain, IoT and related technologies; and sustainability, driven by climate urgency, consumer demand and regulation. It invests across six verticals in travel and hospitality in Europe and Israel, seeking companies that can scale globally. Candidate companies are assessed with a proprietary '5+2 lenses' framework covering desirability, marketability, defensibility, scalability and timeliness, alongside founder and management team quality.
