Investment Thesis

Galileo Ventures focuses on backing “emerging founders” from their first rounds — prioritising unproven, scrappy entrepreneurs building new technology for global markets. They operate as a pre-seed to seed VC that provides capital (typically $200k–$500k) and hands-on support, co-investing and leading rounds with flexible terms and follow-on funding support, and position themselves as long-term partners willing to back founders “from day one.”
