"VF is not your typical investor. They go way beyond that. Apostolos, George, and the team have been extremely supportive and effective as investors, operators, connectors, mentors, idea generators, and friends. VF has been by our side in good and tough times - and tough times are when you need your investors the most."

"VF is an expansion of your team. Venture Friends were one of the first funds backing Belvo when we were just starting. They have been next to us as close as needed, always willing to help and discuss ideas and strategy. Not only do they provide their deep market knowledge, but you can trust them as part of your team, willing to make the best decisions for the company even if they are not the optimal decision for the fund. Having VF next to you feels like an expansion of your team, and this is exactly what we look for in investors."

"Having a fund on your cap table that truly goes the extra mile to understand and support the success of founders and founder-led organisations is the dream of any founder and that's exactly what we found in VF. The strong knowledge of marketplaces and the healthy and balanced way of working along with a strong global network have been of great importance for the success of InstaShop."

"The VF team has been a partner of Huspy since the initial days and has been doubling down in each round after. George D, George K, and Apostolos have been a true support system and encourage us to be more bold, ambitious, and global. We see VF as an extension to our internal team and it's very refreshing to work with investors that are this friendly but also share the same vision as you do."

"VF have been incredible partners to Carmoola. Apostolos and the team bring rare clarity, conviction, and genuine founder empathy. They understand how to scale ambitious consumer fintechs and consistently add value well beyond capital — from strategic thinking to practical support at exactly the right moments. We’re very fortunate to have them on the journey."
