We invest in the best companies together with the best investors

Golden Egg Check Capital

Since 2022 we invest with our co-investment fund in (Pre-)Seed startups. We invest small tickets (convertible, SAFE or equity) in rounds together with great angels and top tier venture capital funds, including General Catalyst, Speedinvest, Cherry Ventures, Point Nine and Notion Capital.

Access to (follow-on) capital

Like no other we know the landscape of angels and VCs. We can help you with access to relevant investors for your current and next investment rounds. In this way we can help you to close your round fast.

Founder community

We believe in the power of peer-to-peer interactions. By founders for founders. Do you have challenges with scaling your sales channels, opening up offices abroad, hiring C-level people, etcetera? Chances are we’ll have founders in our community that have experience with this.

GTM support

GEC adds expertise in three areas: go-to-market strategy, talent & hiring, and access to top operators in the industry.

Interested?

This is what we find really interesting:

We believe in complementary teams with international ambitions and scalable technology.
We are broadly interested in terms of market- and technology domains, but most often invest in Software/AI and Deeptech.
We prefer B2B, but don’t rule out B2C.
We mainly invest in Europe, with preference for the Benelux, Germany and Nordics.
Great founders can come from anywhere. We do our best to invest in diverse teams.
We invest from early (Pre-Seed & Seed), but we always seek a relationship between funding need, valuation and traction that makes sense to us.
