We're Kaas

About

Kaas is a venture firm that backs exceptional founders obsessed with 10X-ing people's lives; teams rewriting the rules in shopping, eating, working, playing, living and learning. Besides capital we bring strategic know-how and network to help founders hit it out of the park from day one.

Every investment begins with a profound belief on how the world is changing. We then back visionaries through investment from our network to achieve benefits of knowledge arbitrage. In the early days, when starting a business, we learnt that access to the right people can unlock unrivalled competitive advantage.

Together with founders we ideate, research, prototype, validate and fund ideas. We typically come in as the first investor with deals ranging from €250K to €1MN backed by a network of strategics - all represented as a single line on your cap table. We invest on a deal-by-deal basis across all of Europe.

Investment Criteria

What we look for

People-Centric

We back companies obsessed about 10x-ing people's lives; teams rewriting the rules of shopping, eating, working, playing, living and learning in an ever-connected world.

Tech-Enabled

We invest in companies where the application of consumer-grade tech sits at the core of the business, or the vision for the company.

Global Reach

We fund startups that have the potential to become cross-border successes; we want global thinkers from the get-go.

Values

We invest in what we believe

Build relationships

Relationships are the secret to
success in business and in life.
At Kaas we care about making each
team stronger, happier and better. Period.

Be atypical

Profound believes drive direction,
regardless of the opinions of others.
We look for founders that follow
their Yellow Brick Road.

Start with Why

Life isn't endless, so while we are at it,
we better make it worth our time.
What good is hard work if not
to enable us to realise our ideals.
