OUR PORTFOLIO COMPANIES
Philosophy
​
We seek innovative ideas and enthusiastic entrepreneurs with a relentless drive for changing the world. We provide more than capital but years of experience to support our portfolio companies from being localized, to globalized. We are disciplined, passionate and hard-working - we seek out extraordinary founders that are the same way.
​
We value honesty, respect, and integrity. Each of our team members and startup leaders are committed to upholding the highest standards of professionalism. We encourage outside thinking and a broad array of perspectives to cultivate a culture of curiosity and diversity. We believe the highest performing enterprises are those that are built upon a team-first foundation. We empower every individual so that each member is a leader of the team.
Culture
​
Silverstone Venture Partners recognizes that Equity, Diversity & Inclusion (EDI) have a positive impact on both our employees, portfolio companies and society. Fostering an environment that not only respects, but also values difference is important. Diversity in experiences, knowledge and perception is crucial for our decision-making and our success. We firmly believe that our role as investor and partner, we have a duty to be socially conscious and to use our platform in a way that advances a more equitable future.
