WHO ARE WE
Finch Capital is an early stage venture capital firm focusing on Europe and South East Asia.
We are thematic investors investing in FinTech (Financial Services, Real Estate, Insurance) and DeepTech (AI enabled transformation, Security, IoT).
INVESTMENT STRATEGY
We like to invest in businesses that are already generating some revenue and we mainly evaluate companies based on four criteria:
TEAM
This is as much about the individuals as it is about the team. We have a strong preference for teams that have worked together in some form in the past and complement each other on skills and ways of working.
GO TO MARKET
How are you planning to sell the product? What is your proposition, who are your target customers, which distribution channels, can you leverage to minimise sale cycles?
PRODUCT
Needs to be a solution for a real problem. We want to understand what problem you are fixing, why this is a problem and why is your solution better, more sustainable and scalable. We believe in products that are superior in the following three aspects: significantly low cost, significantly provide revenue uplift and unrivaled user experience.
FINANCIAL
We like to understand your financials, including financing requirements now and in the future and your vision for the next 5-10 years.
WHAT WE OFFER
We partner with entrepreneurs and management teams and offer active engagement
We bring more to the table than just funding
ACTIVE INVESTOR
This is as much about the individuals as it is about the team. We have a strong preference for teams that have worked together in some form in the past and complement each other on skills and ways of working.
ENTREPRENEURIAL MINDED
We are founders ourselves of companies, and by doing so have developed extensive experience in building businesses, expanding into different countries and continents, building partnerships with financial institutions as well technology companies, dealing with regulators and exiting and buying companies.
PATTERN RECOGNITION
We have specific expertise in the financial services and technology vertical and have valued insights and experiences in dealing with regulators, financial products, expanding into different counties as well as building capital light and intensive businesses. We share these lessons and patterns with the companies we back to learn from the past and accelerate success.
INTERNATIONAL NETWORK
We have a broad global network of experienced individuals, tech companies and financial institutions that we can access to help make introductions to target markets and provide further insights and perspectives of market developments.
