Frequently asked questions
What investment stages does Lilo Ventures focus on?
Lilo Ventures invests across early-stage, growth, and divestiture-driven transactions per the firm's stated strategy. This spans from seed rounds for founder-led startups to structured growth equity for scaling companies. Corporate carve-outs represent a distinct sourcing channel where the firm acquires non-core technology assets from larger organizations.
Which sectors does Lilo Ventures explicitly target?
The firm concentrates on enterprise software and artificial intelligence and machine learning companies. These are capital-efficient technology sectors well-represented in the Central European ecosystem. The firm does not publicize sector exclusions, but its disclosed focus remains narrow around B2B technology.
How does Lilo Ventures source its deals?
Divestiture-driven sourcing is a signature element of the firm's strategy. Lilo Ventures originates investments from corporate sellers spinning off non-core software units, in addition to conventional venture deal flow. This creates opportunities where competitive auction dynamics are less intense than in standard startup fundraising processes.
Where does Lilo Ventures invest geographically?
Lilo Ventures is headquartered in Vienna and invests across Europe, with an implied emphasis on the DACH region — Germany, Austria, and Switzerland. The firm's focus on corporate divestitures aligns with the concentrated industrial and corporate landscape in German-speaking Europe.
Does Lilo Ventures participate in fund commitments or only direct deals?
Publicly available information describes Lilo Ventures making direct investments in portfolio companies across stages. The firm has not disclosed any fund-of-funds activity, commitments to external GP vehicles, or participation in club deals alongside other investors.
