The firm's maximum investment can reach up to 750,000 Euros, with a minimum investment threshold of 50,000 Euros and an investment sweet spot at around 250,000 Euros. Venista Ventures' typical ticket size ranges between 50,000 to 150,000 Euros, mainly at the Pre-Seed and Seed stage of a startup's growth. Their portfolio showcases startups like Charles, which turns conversations into conversions with a conversational commerce suite, and ContractHero, a digital contract management tool. Venista Ventures is also closely linked with two fully-owned operating subsidiaries that operate as agencies, expanding their reach and impact within the startup ecosystem.
