ENTREPRENEURIAL PARTNERS
Venionaire Capital
Venionaire is an Entrepreneurial Partner for investors, founders, and institutionals. We are an investment firm with our partners and team specializing in Venture Capital and Private Equity investments, with an extensive track record over more than 13 years.
What does “Entrepreneurial Partner” mean? As Entrepreneurial Partners we go beyond mere supporters. We actively participate in the execution of strategies, embrace challenges, and share both the risks and rewards.
USP
- In the world of Private Equity and Venture Capital, we offer a broad range of services—and we take pride in our expertise. For instance, we establish, manage, and oversee Alternative Investment Funds (AIFs) such as our Venionaire Web3 Fund for Web3 investments or the EXF Alpha Fund for co-investments in European startups. An AIF is a collective investment structure that pools capital from multiple investors and deploys it based on a clearly defined investment strategy. This is done through our registered Alternative Investment Fund Managers (AIFM) entities Venionaire Investment Ges.m.b.H and Venionaire Ventures S.á.r.l.
- Beyond fund management, we support companies in navigating financial transactions and strategic financing challenges. Whether it’s fundraising, valuation, mergers & acquisitions (M&A), or connecting corporates with startups through incubators and accelerators, we facilitate impactful collaborations. Moreover, we invest directly in startups through the syndicate fund of the European Super Angels Club.
- Our expertise also extends to Restructuring, Debt Management and Succession Planning, ensuring businesses remain financially resilient.
- Finally, we provide in-depth research and analytical products, such as VIDA (Venionaire Index for Digital Assets), a family of risk-optimized indices for the crypto market, or the European Venture Sentiment Index, a quarterly survey that measures investor sentiment across the European Venture Capital landscape.
We walk the journey alongside our clients and are never afraid to commit ourselves for our clients.
We actively participate in the execution of strategies, embrace challenges, and share both the risks and rewards.
We understand that true partnership involves accountability, adaptability, and a relentless drive to achieve results.
We are ENTREPRENEURIAL PARTNERS because we go beyond mere supporters.
How it all came to be …
History
Venionaire Capital was founded in September 2012, by Berthold Baurek-Karlic (Iridium Family Office GmbH) in Vienna, Austria – a young serial entrepreneur. He managed to become one of the youngest licensed top-managers of a european investment firm in Europe at the time. In March 2015 partners offered Venionaire to make first steps in the United States of America through New York City. Looking back today this was without any doubt a game-changing moment, which opened a whole world of new opportunities. The company grew its network every year since it was founded and keeps on doing so today. In each major development step new partners like March15 (2015), e&Co AG (2017) and NBT Verwaltungs GmbH (2018) joined the firm and fueled further growth. Venionaire (co-)founded initiatives such as the Business Angel Institute in 2014 and European Super Angels Club (2017) – today one of Europes largest Pan-European Investment Networks – alongside Partners from KPMG Austria. It was always beneficial for us to ride on the shoulders of giants, believing in strong partnerships and longterm relationships. We are proud to be a driving force within european innovation ecosystems.
