Investment Thesis

Day One Capital believes in backing technology-driven founders from Central and Eastern Europe who are building world-class products with global ambitions. They focus on early-stage companies with innovative products and established growth potential, providing hands-on support leveraging their team’s entrepreneurial, corporate, and investor experience to help founders ‘conquer global markets.’

What Sets Them Apart

  • Concentrated portfolio approach - building a focused portfolio of around 20 companies rather than diversifying widely
  • Deep CEE regional expertise and network - specific focus on Central and Eastern European founders with proven track record of successful exits (Tresorit, aiMotive, NOW Technologies)
  • Hands-on operational support - team brings extensive corporate experience from large technology companies (Magyar Telekom, IBM, EPAM) and successful startup founding/operations
  • Access to EU funding - supported by InnovFin Equity and the European Fund for Strategic Investments (EFSI) under Horizon 2020
  • Thesis on CEE advantage - conviction that 'The CEE region has an unfair advantage in having an efficient and skilled talent pool inventing world-class products and companies'
