B2Broker VC

A venture capital fund that enables us to make investments in and nurture external projects that are of interest to B2Broker such as new fintech startups and payment systems.

About B2Broker VC

Since 2017, the capitalisation of our fund has grown steadily which includes the number of projects we have invested in.
2017
B2Broker Group has launched an internal venture capital fund to finance our own projects and ideas.

Since then, we've invested in the development of new products and services.
2018-2019
To be successful each product requires significant investment both financially and resource-related, including the engagement of a team of developers, Product and Project Managers.

We endeavour to conduct the best practices in assessing projects and development opportunities.
2020-Now
In market realities, not all products and services have been unconditionally successful.

Some were closed down, some were absorbed by other products and services, but thanks to the joint efforts of our team, a significant number of them survived the first and most difficult stage and are now in the development phase.

FAQs

Have a question? A source of useful information about our products and services.
What is venture capital?
Venture capital is a form of investment at an early stage of company/project development with good growth potential. There are different forms of investment or quasi-investment and different stages of recipient development at which such investment can be made. Usually, the venture capital fund enters into the recipient’s capital (purchase of shares or stakes in the business).
What factors do investors take into account when selecting a project?
The main goal of venture capital investors is to help young companies/projects that are at the early stages and have high growth potential. Venture capitalists often focus on high-tech projects that can bring innovation to markets in the future. In selecting projects, we pay attention to the experience, expertise and reputation of the founders and team, the potential of the product, and the state of the market to which the product is introduced.
Why does the recipient need a venture capital investor?
Start-ups are at the very beginning of their path and need both financial resources to achieve their objectives and assistance in the financial, legal and technological areas. We provide not only financial injections, but also access to our expertise.
What is the difference between a Business Angel Investor, a seed fund and a venture capital fund?
It should be noted that there is no single well-established model for classifying investors at present. As a rule, the differences between the three types lie in the stage at which each investor is willing to take part in the project as well as in the amount of funds. As usual, the Business Angel Investors do not provide large amounts of money, however are willing to participate at the earliest stages (e.g., concept development stage or pre-seed stage). A seed fund comes into play at the Seed or Early Growth stage with large infusions, while a venture capital fund takes over the already established and launched projects.
Which projects would B2Broker VC be most interested in?
– Entering markets with growth and development potential
– A strong team of experts
– Availability of competitive advantages
– Availability of quality documents describing financial models, income and expenditure projections
– Effectiveness of corporate governance
– Existence of established partnerships or customer base
Are there any projects that B2Broker VC will definitely not invest in?
– Presence of better solutions in the market than those offered by the recipient
– Technology fully borrowed from a third party
– Obsolete products and technologies
– Negative history (fraud)
– Products that require huge financial contribution and may only be ready in the very distant future
How do you work with the recipient companies after the start of the partnership and the first investment?
We become part of the project both physically and mentally. Our representative is a member of the board of directors and helps the company achieve success with his or her expertise. We do not require reporting for reporting’s sake, but we do ask to be provided with the company’s budget and key strategic documents, as well as to be consulted when important decisions are made.
Does B2Broker VC have geographical restrictions?
No, we are willing to work with companies around the world if they meet our standards.
Is it possible for a start-up to join the B2Broker Group?
We review all applications for cooperation received by B2Broker VC. Companies/projects that are considered for joining the B2Broker Group must not only meet our performance standards and provide solutions in the areas we are interested in, but also share our philosophy and values.
