Luma Ventures is a Venture Capital fund that focuses on investments in enterprises deploying Data Science to build their products or solutions. We support companies from early-growth to growth stages with capital requirements from EUR 0.75 million up to EUR 2 million. We are industry and business model agnostic. Our fund is based in Warsaw, yet we do not limit ourselves to Poland only and we actively search for investment targets in the CEE region. At Luma Ventures, we believe that acceleration activities and non-financial support are crucial for our portfolio companies to increase their probability of success. That is why we strive to provide the real smart money to our entrepreneurs by sharing our experience, knowledge, business contacts and social capital.

That is why at Luma Ventures we focus on direct cooperation with entrepreneurs, open communication, and establishment of healthy business relationships. Apart from that, we become involved in numerous activities that aim to increase the probability of success of our ventures.
Our team includes former executives of leading Polish companies operating in the logistics and financial sectors, entrepreneurs with experience in start-ups, analysts, and functional specialists.
We have practical experience and educational background in the Data Science domain. We have a very deep understanding of data-oriented projects, which helps us get to know entrepreneurs and accelerate their ventures.
The size and amount of assets that we manage allow us to look for synergies among our portfolio companies. This applies both to the Luma Ventures portfolio and to other Luma Holding’s assets. We seek commercial alliances, opportunities for pilot projects, and feedback from peer entrepreneurs and executives.
We manage assets generated by other investments carried out by Luma Holding. We are independent from government subsidies, which makes us flexible when it comes to cooperation with companies and their further exit strategies.
We invest in the CEE region, while at the same time we help our start-ups expand into Poland – the biggest market in the region. Our goal is to support regional business growth until the company is mature enough to look for A+ rounds and to proceed further with global expansion.
The Management Team of Luma Ventures has extensive experience in privatisation, business restructuring, finance, and banking. The team executed M&A transactions valued at PLN 4.5 billion.
