SpeedUp Venture Capital Group

SpeedUp Venture Capital Group is a venture capital organisation that has supported innovation and technology entrepreneurship in Poland since 2006, investing in early-stage founders mainly in Poland and the wider central and eastern European region. The group says it has worked with more than 200 founders in their first steps and has ties with investors across the region. It is no longer taking on new investment projects, and is instead focused on managing and supporting its existing active funds through to the end of their life cycles. Some of the group's partners have set up a separate investment platform, S20 Fund, which now runs its own independent investment activity. The group's funds have previously backed companies in areas including energy, electromobility, IoT, smart cities, SaaS and healthcare, as well as research-driven technology firms.
