StartTech Ventures

Founder and President Dimitris Tsingos leads strategy, with Managing Director Iro Tsakiri and Head of Operations Katerina Kastriti overseeing day-to-day portfolio support from the Athens R&D center. The firm publicly positions itself as a co-founder rather than a passive investor, so decisions integrate directly with the founder team around each venture.

The firm builds most ventures internally, often originating concepts and assembling founding teams rather than sourcing external rounds. It also co-invests alongside the Hellenic Business Angel Network for pre-seed and seed-stage B2B SaaS startups with North American commercial ambitions.

StartTech Ventures has not publicly disclosed its capital source. The firm does not reference limited partners or fund structures on its site, and its success-case narrative emphasizes building companies without external venture rounds, relying on customer revenues and lean operations.

Pre-seed and seed financing, alone or with angel co-investors, for early-stage startups. The firm stays engaged through the scale-up phase, supported by its venture building team, and has demonstrated exits at scale with companies such as Epignosis.

The firm has not published a formal exclusion list. Its disclosed record is entirely in B2B SaaS, with portfolio examples such as Epignosis learning technologies, Yodeck digital signage, AbZorba social casino games, and Elorus invoicing — no hardware, deep tech, or consumer social companies appear in portfolio listings.

The firm co-invests with angel networks, most prominently the Hellenic Business Angel Network, and maintains relationships with later-stage capital such as Insight Partners. Nikitas Koutoupes of Insight has publicly acknowledged the quality of StartTech's portfolio after investing in Epignosis.

The Athens office functions as the firm's R&D and venture building hub, housing product designers, developers, performance marketers, and operations staff. This structure allows portfolio companies to access a shared build team while pursuing North American go-to-market strategies from the San Francisco headquarters.
