A Late Cofounder
Instead Of An Early VC

Torus Capital
is a venture fund

We lead €1–2M rounds in early-stage tech companies, and continue investing as the company grows, helping founders go from 0 to €10M in revenue.

Each investment is led by a Venture Partner, an experienced entrepreneur who invests personally and joins your board.

What founders actually want

An experienced entrepreneur on their board

Someone who understands the business, commits real time, and helps get to the next milestone faster.

With the firepower of a VC

A €1–2M cheque, a peer network of entrepreneurs, and access to serious follow-on capital.

And without the downsides

No sharky dynamics. No portfolio manager prematurely deciding you’re “not the winner”.

Why this combination is hard to find

Most angel investors lack the structure

Entrepreneurs often have the experience founders want, but not the ticket size, incentive, or support to fully commit time.

Most VCs are built for portfolios

Venture funds have the capital and networks, but are designed to manage portfolios. That often means attention shifts, priorities change, and commitment fades if progress isn’t fast enough.

The Torus Way

Torus is built to give founders the investor they actually want

We back experienced entrepreneurs and give them the infrastructure, capital, board support, and incentives to make VC level investments and commit real time.

As a founder building a company

Our mission is to act as a late cofounder to
the founders we back

Committed

We invest personally.

Accountable

Our upside is tied to your company, not a portfolio.

Present

We show up when decisions are hard and progress takes longer than planned.

If this resonates,
let's talk

We work with a small number
