Ugly Duckling Ventures

At Ugly Duckling Ventures, we make capital, know-how, and real-world application available to Nordic ventures at the seed & pre-seed stages.

Founder respectful.

We are into building relationships, value transparency, and we pride ourselves on always shooting straight.

Active.

We are operational by nature and want to get in the grind as we excel at getting early-stage ventures ready for scale.

​GPs only.

Our portfolio founders are never handed off to junior account managers but are directly linked to our experienced partners.

Network.

We have been active in the Danish startup community for more than a decade. Many of our investors are actively helping our portfolio startups.
