We are a venture studio and we are a family of impact funds. We partner with incredible entrepreneurs & corporates to co-create solutions that have a positive impact on society and the planet. We have our own investment fund that enables us to execute fast and focused with co-founders and strategic partners. At KRING, we primarily work with:
SDG3: Good Health and Well-Being: Ensure healthy lives and promote well-being for all at all ages.
SDG7: Affordable and Clean Energy: Ensure access to affordable, reliable, sustainable and modern energy.
We prefer to work with startups that operate in B2B2C and/or B2C markets (or has the potential to do so). Namely, we focus on solving real end-user problems, with high level of value-add and consumer demand, either directly or via corporate partnerships.
In addition to KRING’s in-house venture building expertise, we are now seeking early-stage startups and idea-stage founders for investment and inclusion in our latest impact fund, KRING Speedbooting 2022. Early-stage startups must have strong synergies with the KRING portfolio, industry focus, mindset and values, along with an ability to adapt our proven venture-building methodology
Stage Focus: We primarily invest in Pre-seed rounds, but will occasionally consider Seed rounds if the match is right. Namely, we believe this spectrum is where we can create the strongest synergies and mutual value creation.
Geography: We only invest in ideas and startups based in Denmark
Current Ownership and Cap Table: We look for startups with a clean cap table. We want to be “co-founders” alongside the existing Founders. You must be willing to accept an ownership for KRING Speedbooting 2022 of 25% – 50% depending on stage and valuation.
