Viaduct Ventures

About The Fund

Viaduct Ventures is an early-stage venture capital firm emphasizing technology-focused investments. They aim to leverage and harness the innovative capacity of Eastern Europe to make an impact in Silicon Valley. The fund concentrates on enterprises within the domains of big data, the Internet of Things (IoT), fintech, and digital health, positioning itself as a bridge between these markets. Their investment strategy is inclusive of providing seed to Series A capital, with a minimum investment of $100,000, a maximum of $5,000,000, and a sweet spot of approximately $1,500,000 for selected investments. Viaduct Ventures is not simply a financial backer to their portfolio companies; they commit time and expertise to enhance their business aspects, helping them to scale in revenues and capitalization. They are particularly keen on startups that take on the role of Data Refineries and provide actionable intelligence, empowering businesses with advanced technologies. Viaduct ventures have an optimistic outlook on AI's role in business, visualizing a decade where AI will redefine how companies operate and contribute to the global economy. Their focus includes U.S.-based or U.S.-focused technology startups, specifically AI-based products designed for enterprise clients. They advocate for their investment thesis by inviting Limited Partners (LPs) to co-invest and by updating investors through collaborative relationships which include regular trips to California. Their team consists of experienced professionals with backgrounds in venture capital, transactions, and various advisory roles. Team members like Stewart Guenther and Vadim Balashov bring in a wealth of experience from security technology ventures to high-tech and telecommunications industry transactions. Venture Partner George Zoidze adds to this expertise his extensive experience in investment banking and finance across various EU industries.
