Our Philosophy

Why Surmount Ventures?

Our team has a background in entrepreneurship, technology and M&A.


Surmount means overcome difficulties or obstacles needed to make impact. As entrepreneur-investors we’re looking for founders that challenge the status quo and bring ideas to life. Together drive the transformation of our society.

How we do it

Platform companies


We partner with ambitious and relentless entrepreneurs to build scaling platforms through internationalisation and buy & build. We are looking for platform companies that have proven business models with a forecast EBITDA of at least EUR 2 million, multiple options to create value with a clear path to market leadership.


Enabling technologies & scale-ups


We invest in entrepreneurs and scale-ups to take enabling technologies beyond their strategic inflection point. Similar to the platform companies we are looking for enabling technologies and scale-ups that will accelerate the transformation of our future of health, living and work
