About Startupfon

Who we are?

Startupfon, which aims to address the portfolio and time management challenges faced by investors in the ecosystem through its funds and online investment platform, began its journey by incorporating in 2019. In March 2021, it established its first venture capital fund in the Netherlands, focusing on early-stage startups, and has since invested in numerous successful startups both in Turkey and globally, and continuing to do so. It launched its co-investment platform after receiving a platform license from the Capital Markets Board (SPK) in September 2023. By the end of 2023, Startupfon continues to invest in startups at various stages through its newly established Startupfon Seed VC and Startupfon Opportunity VC funds.

Investment Philosophy

Startupfon embraces a co-investment philosophy, supporting the growth of the entrepreneurial ecosystem in Turkey and expanding the capital accessible to entrepreneurs. It supports its portfolio companies throughout their life cycles by enhancing their growth, providing mentorship, and leveraging its extensive network to accelerate their progress. Startupfon's team of investment professionals is highly selective, reviewing thousands of companies each year, interviewing selected teams. After an extensive due diligence process, Startupfon shares the investment opportunities with its members for co-invesment.   By co-investing with ecosystem stakeholders, LPs and platform investors, Startupfon aims to increase investment volume while mitigating risk.
