PurposeTech is a pre-seed fund that is passionate about empowering purpose-driven founders and investing in purpose-driven startups in the CEE (Central and Eastern Europe) region. As their very first investor, PurposeTech plays a crucial role as a valued partner in the journey of these startups to change the world. PurposeTech invests super early, participating in angel or pre-seed rounds and collaborating with other funds and angels.

They are known for being very hands-on, dedicating several hours per week to each startup, helping them build an investable Minimum Viable Product (MVP) with adequate traction. Their approach is structured, evidence-based, and always honest. With a close partnership with the Impact Hub, PurposeTech has access to a vast network of entrepreneurs, experts, and decision-makers.

This allows them to provide valuable introductions and open doors for their startups regularly. PurposeTech focuses on investing in exceptional founders with an unreasonable level of commitment, talent, and ambition. They prefer scalable business concepts that can leverage technology for growth and intentionally aim for positive societal impact.

While they are sector-agnostic, they have a particular interest in EdTech, HealthTech, and ClimateTech startups. If you are interested in pitching your startup to PurposeTech, their investment process involves a short application, an introductory call, a deep dive into your startup, and a final decision by their Investment Committee
