About

We are a US venture capital fund investing 100k-IM USD in early-stage startups in Central & Eastern Europe and the diaspora. Our primary focus is software and gamedev. We love to work with serial entrepreneurs with a global vision who aim to build leaders in their industries.


What We Look For

Proven Leadership

We love serial entrepreneurs with a history of successful exits (as well as many failures). If you can prove you've done it before, it's a sign for us you can do it again.

Deep Understanding of Your Industry

Be the person that others associate with your industry when they want to recommend an expert. In-depth know-how of the industry you're trying to disrupt is something we require from all our founders.

Culture Fit with SMOK

Working with an investor is a long-term partnership. We need to be sure we will be able to communicate, help each other out, and build awesome things together.
