Samuel Gassauer ^Leader

I’m passionate about venture capital not just as an asset class, but as a force for shaping the future. Venture capital isn’t about short-term gains — it’s about backing visionary founders and bold technologies before they become part of the mainstream. It’s about the thrill of innovation, the rigor of early-stage thinking, and the conviction to commit when others hesitate.

At inVenture Capital, we are on a mission to open doors that have historically been closed. Too often, access to the most promising startups and top-tier venture capital funds has been reserved for institutional players. That needs to change. That’s why we build digital bridges between complex VC ecosystems and individuals who want to participate — transparently, thoughtfully and with the highest standards of governance. 

As part of the leadership team, I combine my background as a tech entrepreneur with a deep belief in the transformative power of innovation. My focus is on creating intuitive, trust-worthy investment experiences that demystify venture capital while preserving what makes it extraordinary: long-term thinking, active support of founders, and participation in generating real economic impact. 

Through the iVC Venture Innovation Fund, we aggregate capital and deploy it into a diversified mix of the best European VC managers. That means:
➡️ investing in hundreds of startups across DeepTech, HealthTech, ClimateTech and digital innovation;
➡️ giving investors access to a class normally out of reach; 
➡️ and supporting technologies and teams that are building the solutions of tomorrow. 

Our core belief is simple: innovation is the engine of growth, and everyone should be able to participate in it — without unnecessary barriers. Venture capital, when approached with care and conviction, has the potential to generate both impact and attractive long-term returns, and to democratize access to the future of technology.
