Despite the ongoing conflict in Ukraine, we strongly believe that investing in Ukraine's innovations not only is a sustainable aid for recovery (and quality jobs in Ukraine) but the nation's resilience and untapped potentials present unique opportunities for substantial returns.

To validate our thesis, we travelled to Ukraine and met 40+ stakeholders of the early-stage startup ecosystem on multiple trips to Kyiv, Lviv, Odesa and Kharkiv in 2023. Our thesis held up (you can discover our findings in our report on "Business Angels and Reconstructing Ukraine").

We therefore initiated Ukraimpulse, a European business angel micro-fund, focusing on investments in pre-seed and seed-stage startups in Ukraine, supporting them not only with capital, but also actively contribute with our know-how and network.

Our expertise is derived from decades of collective experience as entrepreneurs, corporate leaders and angel investors. We cumulated many years of experience doing business in Eastern Europe and especially Ukraine and have been on the ground in Ukraine with our humanitarian projects multiple times in the past years. We believe now is the time to shift from aid to recovery, so instead of providing aid, we provide what we're best at: Angel Investing.
