Frequently asked questions
Who runs investment decisions at Rockaway?
Jakub Havrlant is the CEO and founder and drives overall investment strategy. The firm operates sector funds — RockawayAlpha, RockawayX, RockawayDefense, and United Founders — each with its own mandate, suggesting dedicated investment teams under Havrlant's leadership.
How does Rockaway source proprietary deal flow?
Rockaway built its reputation as an early investor in Central European e-commerce, which provides an operational network across the region. The firm also uses its presence in blockchain and AI to access early-stage technology deals, such as the 2026 AMI Labs seed round sourced through its venture arm.
Is Rockaway structured as a family office or an institutional manager?
Rockaway operates as an asset manager that raises third-party capital through multiple thematic funds — Rockaway Fund, RockawayAlpha, RockawayX, RockawayDefense, and United Founders. This open-architecture model makes it closer to an institutional private equity platform than a single-family office.
Does Rockaway participate in fund commitments or only direct deals?
The firm executes direct investments through its sector-specific vehicles. It has not disclosed acting as a limited partner in external funds; its public activity consists of direct private equity, venture capital, and blockchain investments.
What investment stages does Rockaway typically target?
Rockaway spans early-stage and growth investments. United Founders targets seed and Series A technology companies, while RockawayAlpha and RockawayDefense focus on later-stage private equity. The blockchain arm, RockawayX, invests across the lifecycle of digital-asset projects.
How is Rockaway related to its philanthropic and cultural activities?
The group operates Profil Media, which organizes the Křehký Mikulov collectible-design festival. These activities are kept separate from the investment funds, reflecting Havrlant's interest in design and the creative economy without blending them into the investment vehicles.
Does Rockaway maintain a separate defense investment mandate?
Yes. RockawayDefense is a dedicated private equity fund within the group. It invests in defense and security technologies, marking a distinct sector allocation that sits alongside the main private equity and venture vehicles.
