Akiden Ventures is a Growth Squad, a team of digital specialists whose objective is to actively contribute to the success of the projects it gets involved in.

Akiden Ventures integrates projects as:

FOUNDER

We create projects from scratch using our in-house operational skills and choose a partner to manage them.

CO-FOUNDER

We integrate an idea or project in which we believe and we associate ourselves with its founders from the early stages of the project’s life.

HANDS ON INVESTOR

We invest in more advanced projects and contribute to their acceleration through the Squad.

Acceleration through the Growth Squad

In addition to its strategic skills, Akiden Ventures provides the know-how of its team: the Growth Squad is composed of Specialists from different key digital skills. Their expertise has been developed by participating in projects with very strong growth. By integrating a new project, the Squad immediately replicates proven methods, allowing it to be propelled quickly.

Scalability
It should be possible to expand the model to generate strong growth.
Ambition
We are looking for entrepreneurs who are full of ambition.
Funds
The startup must be looking for funding or ready to open its capital.
Location
The startup will preferably be in the French-speaking part of Switzerland, but with an international focus.
