Who we are
We provide investors with exposure to disruptive consumer technology companies that are growing exponentially and approaching IPO.
Ventura Capital was founded in 2012 by Mo El Husseiny to provide investors with exposure to disruptive consumer and enterprise technology companies that are growing exponentially and approaching IPO.
Through its global network and proven technology sector expertise, the firm is able to source and invest in exclusive and compelling private companies on a clear trajectory to IPO.
To date, the firm has invested over $400 million in 21 growth stage pre-IPO companies including Upgrade, Coursera, Spotify, Tekever, Delos, Lyft and Xiaomi delivering high returns and building a strong reputation for ‘picking winners’ on behalf of its investors.
The firm routinely assists portfolio companies to drive revenue growth, while maintaining an arms-length distance from the operational authority of management teams.
As at 31 December 2022, the firm had an average exit of 3.5x and generated 59% IRR*, with an average hold period of less than 4 years.
