Frequently asked questions
Who runs investment decisions at Feelsgood Capital Partners?
The firm names Renata Brkić, Vedran Blagus, Pierre Matek, and Dinko Novoselec as team members on its website, though specific leadership titles such as CEO or CIO are not publicly disclosed. The fund manager entity is Feelsgood Capital Partners d.o.o., registered in Croatia.
How does Feelsgood Capital Partners source deal flow and what does it cost the founders?
Feelsgood runs a cohort-based application process with stated deadlines in May and November. All program fees for selected startups are fully covered through Digital Europe Programme and Croatian NRRP funding, meaning founders carry no out-of-pocket cost for the firm's support.
What is the firm's relationship to the UN Sustainable Development Goals?
Feelsgood requires every portfolio company to target at least one of the 17 SDGs and to make measurable social impact a deliberate, sustainable part of its business model. The firm is also backed by an academic advisory panel that assists investees in setting impact indicators and conducting measurement.
What investment stages and geographies does Feelsgood target?
The firm invests from seed through growth stage, concentrating on ventures headquartered in Croatia and Slovenia. Its strategy encompasses venture general, early-stage, and expansion capital, with no indication that it participates in later-stage buyouts or mature-company control positions.
How is Feelsgood regulated compared to other regional venture firms?
On June 10, 2020, the Croatian Financial Services Supervisory Agency (HANFA) authorized Feelsgood Capital Partners d.o.o. to establish and manage the Feelsgood Social Impact Investment Fund as a formal Alternative Investment Fund Manager. This subjects Feelsgood to EU-aligned reporting and governance standards that most informal Adriatic angel networks do not bear.
Does Feelsgood operate purely as a venture fund, or does it maintain other investment structures?
The only publicly disclosed vehicle is the Feelsgood Social Impact Investment Fund, a regulated closed-end structure. There is no evidence of parallel philanthropic foundations, real-asset arms, or multi-family office offerings in its current public materials.
What sectors does Feelsgood explicitly avoid?
No explicit negative sector screen is published. However, the portfolio's concentration and the firm's impact mission suggest a de facto exclusion of industries that cannot credibly map to the SDGs, such as fossil fuels, defense, or vice products.
