Investment thesis
Senovo is a specialized early-stage B2B software fund investing in a new generation of European B2B software companies since 2013. It focuses on solutions that enable the digitalization of medium and large enterprises, backing teams building AI-first products across cybersecurity, industrial tech, open source, infrastructure, SaaS and other deep tech B2B software areas. Senovo invests once a startup has achieved product-market fit and generated first revenues with initial customers, then supports them through the critical scaling phase — building scalable sales models, performance-driven HR, and international (including US) expansion to prepare for a larger growth round. Its initial investment is up to EUR 5m.
