Overview

Speedinvest is a Vienna-based early-stage VC firm that has adopted a unique approach to the traditional scout program model. Instead of launching a typical scout program, Speedinvest has invested €3M across 10-12 early-stage fund managers in emerging markets, including Latam and Africa. This fund-of-funds strategy enables Speedinvest to support emerging manager talent while expanding their deal sourcing reach, representing a distinct philosophy on building distributed investment networks.

Investment focus

Speedinvest's investment thesis focuses on supporting underrepresented venture capital managers in emerging markets. By backing early-stage fund managers rather than traditional scouts, Speedinvest aims to enhance deal sourcing and investment expertise in underserved geographies.
