Vesna Deep Tech Fund

Vesna Deep Tech Fund focuses on investing in breakthrough technologies that address significant global challenges and drive positive change. Their approach involves accessing cutting-edge technologies through partnerships with research institutions, primarily in Slovenia and Croatia. They aim to transfer these technologies into commercially viable products and companies through a hands-on investment strategy. Portfolio companies benefit from close collaboration with industry partners and an expert advisor network, guiding them towards success. They invest in projects based at public or private Slovenian or Croatian R&D institutions with a Technology Readiness Level (TRL) of 3 or higher, and companies originating from these institutions in early stages of development (Seed, Start-up, Later Stage Venture) with operations primarily in Slovenia or Croatia. The fund prioritizes projects and startups with the potential for commercialization and real-world impact, moving beyond shelved academic research.
