Frequently asked questions
Who runs investment decisions at Miton?
Miton does not publicly name a CEO or CIO. The firm's website uses collective language — 'we invest' — and the only named investment decision-maker is Filip Široký, General Partner of its crypto fund MitonC. For traditional tech investments, the decision-making structure is not disclosed.
How does Miton source proprietary deal flow?
Miton's website emphasizes closeness to founders and a 20-year track record in the Czech tech ecosystem, suggesting that reputation and network drive sourcing. The firm's concentration on pre-product-market-fit companies implies that most opportunities originate from local founder referrals and ecosystem visibility rather than competitive processes.
Is Miton a venture capital fund or a private equity firm?
Miton self-identifies as a private equity firm but operates with a venture capital strategy — seed and start-up stage investing in technology companies. It reports no buyout activity and describes itself as investing before product-market fit, which places it squarely in the venture camp.
Does Miton run separate vehicles for different strategies?
Yes. MitonC is a dedicated crypto and web3 fund, led by General Partner Filip Široký, with a disclosed portfolio value exceeding two billion Czech koruna. Miton's traditional tech investments appear to be managed from the main balance sheet, though the legal structure is not publicly detailed.
What is the largest exit Miton has achieved?
Miton recently highlighted the exit of Rossum, an AI document-reading platform founded in 2016 by three Czech Technical University PhDs. The firm characterizes it as a successful outcome from its early AI thesis, but the exit valuation and acquirer have not been publicly disclosed.
Which sectors does Miton avoid?
Miton's disclosed focus areas — AI, crypto, e-commerce, foodtech, and psychedelic-assisted mental health — suggest it avoids heavy industry, hardware, and sectors outside its thesis. Miton does not publish an explicit exclusion list.
Does Miton co-invest alongside external GPs?
Miton does not disclose a co-investment policy. Its portfolio includes established venture-backed companies like Rohlik.cz, which implies participation alongside other investors, but the firm does not market itself as a co-investment partner for outside allocators.
