Fuel Ventures is an early and growth stage investor in leading global technology companies.
We invest in the most ambitious entrepreneurs building market leading companies, with the passion and ability to execute.
We have a unique approach, investing in companies at an early stage and bringing them under one roof so we can work closely with the founders and provide hands-on support. We target globally scalable marketplaces, platforms and software (SaaS) that can generate a minimum of 10x and have the potential for up to 100x.
The Fuel Ventures team and network is made up of successful entrepreneurs, which means we understand how to grow early-stage companies.
