We are Presto Ventures, a VC fund based in Prague. We invest in promising technology start-ups, supporting them via the provision of invaluable resources and guidance, enabling them to achieve local and global success.

Presto (Formerly BVC) was founded in 2016 by Přemysl Rubeš, a mathematician and entrepreneur, with the backing of Tomáš Krsek, the Czech billionaire and philanthropist. With our base in the centre of Europe, the Presto team is constantly on the move discovering and meeting the most inspiring entrepreneurs that Europe has to offer.

We often enter our startups in the Seed stage (round size up to €3M) and continue in the follow-up rounds. Occasionally we invest also in the pre-seed/angel rounds.
