ABOUT US

Virgo Ventures is a hungarian technology incubator founded by Virgo Systems & CEIS.

We are not investors, rather dedicated professional partners that provide significant field expertise, finance up to 250k EUR, extended international network, professional IT and business know-how.

Our goal is to give a real-life, professional, hands-on guidance in the early‐stage digital product and business development. Our added value comes from the 15+ years of successful business record, a team of 100+ IT and other experts and an approach that is based on mutual understanding and equal partnership.

“For us, smart money is the only trusted currency!”

WHAT WE FOCUS ON

We are looking for proof-of-concept or prototype phase, attractive business ideas and solutions that have a significant international growth potential. Our field of interest is in digital product development like IoT, cloud, design, internet, e-commerce, mobile or e-payment solutions.

THE WAY WE WORK

The technological background of the Virgo Group, the number of successful digital companies/stories created allows us to offer unique and high level expertise in digital product development, software, hardware and IT related business & entrepreneurial skills required especially for innovative startups on the way to implement their vision. This is what distinguishes us from other investors/incubators.
While working together we provide these professional and business services according to the individual requirements of our portfolio companies based on their long-term strategic-, financing-, and technological goals and their intention of how much involvement they require from us.
During our program we select up to 15-20 companies. Our portfolio companies are eligible for initial capital and startup grant financing up to 250k EUR or 75m HUF.
