What is venture capital?

Perhaps you’ve heard the term “venture capital”, but you are not quite sure what it means. There has been a lot of focus on investment funds lately, especially with the recent Wall Street VS Reddit development. So, what precisely is venture capital, and why is it important for startups?

Venture capital is a form of investment, that usually invests in innovative and progressive businesses with strong growth potential. Many successful companies have received venture capital funds in their early years. Google, Facebook, Skype – they all started their journey this way. We must say that we are in good company.

If you take a look back on the last 30 years, you could say that venture capital started the modern computer industry. By some estimations, 80% percent of such investments goes onto building the company growth infrastructure – sales, marketing, and manufacturing.

Of course, if you want to hear some real-world examples, and learn how Zerynth has traveled this path, join the webinar on Friday, February 26th, at 4 pm CET.

2 million euro investment into Zerynth

Last year we secured a €2 Million Round A investment led by the Italian fund Vertis Venture 3 Tech Transfer, managed by Vertis SGR with the exclusive advisory of Venture Factory. We are proud that the potential of our IoT platform has been recognized in such a way. The investment is supporting us on our transformation journey and helping us to enhance our market offer and forge important technological partnerships.

There is still a long road ahead of us, and we look forward to all the new challenges. If you watch the webinar, perhaps you’ll learn from our example, and start your own success story.
