Finnvera Venture Capital company profile

Finnvera makes direct investments in early-stage enterprises through Seed Fund Vera Ltd. Finnvera's goal is to cover shortcomings existing on the market between product development funding and private equity investments. Finnvera does not compete with private financiers; instead, it strives to supplement the financial market. Finnvera's investments enable, start and accelerate growth and internationalisation among investment targets. Enterprises are developed to make them attractive targets for further financing by other investors and industrial actors. Investments are made in technology enterprises at an early stage and in technology-intensive or innovative service enterprises that have potential for developing into international growth enterprises. Finnvera is also known as a specialised financing company owned by the State of Finland. It provides its clients with loans, guarantees, venture capital investments and export credit guarantees.
