Frequently asked questions

Does Via ID invest from a fixed-term fund or a permanent capital vehicle?

Via ID invests from the Mobivia corporate balance sheet on a permanent-capital basis, meaning it does not raise discrete funds with limited-partner timelines or mandated distribution schedules. This structure allows the firm to hold positions for extended periods and align with the long adoption cycles common in transportation infrastructure and consumer-mobility behavior change.

Which sectors does Via ID explicitly target?

The firm concentrates on mobility and sustainable transport, which spans electric vehicles, micromobility, shared-mobility platforms, connected-car services, fleet management software, and last-mile logistics. It does not invest in traditional automotive manufacturing or Tier-1 component suppliers, distinguishing its thesis from that of manufacturer-affiliated venture arms.

How does Via ID source its deal flow?

Much of Via ID's pipeline originates through the Mobivia ecosystem — relationships with suppliers, franchisees, and fleet customers surface startups that address real operational friction. The team also maintains relationships with European early-stage funds and co-invests alongside them. In several cases, portfolio companies first engaged Mobivia as a commercial partner before the investment relationship formed.
