Concept Ventures is Europe’s largest dedicated pre-seed fund, built to back founders at the very beginning of their journeys.
We believe conviction matters more than consensus, which is why we lead with the first meaningful cheque - often before there’s even a product or traction. With nearly $200m under management and an $88m Fund II, we’ve invested in over 100 founders across every sector, from AI to robotics, helping them build globally ambitious companies from day zero.
Our team comes from outside traditional VC, giving us a fresh lens to spot unconventional talent early, and our philosophy has stayed constant: founders first, always.

We know founders are tired of vague VC websites and jargon. This page exists to cut through the noise and show you who we really are - our process, philosophy, and people - without the filters. Venture can feel opaque, but we believe in radical transparency. If you’re going to trust us at the very start of your company, you deserve to see us clearly too. This Notion page is our way of saying: we get you, we’ve been there, and we’re not here to waste your time.
There are three things you need to know about us and how we work:
(1) What our pre-investment processes look like
(2) The post-investment journey we’ll take you on
(3) Who we are as a team
