If you are raising capital and researching how to get funding from BonAngels Venture Partners, this profile is your starting point. BonAngels Venture Partners is a Seed, Pre-A / Series A investor focused on Technology / IT (mobile, software, gaming), Fintech, Edtech / Education, Healthcare, Blockchain & Crypto, AI/ML, Robotics & Wearables, with $100 million (Pacemaker Fund 4, the firm's most recent seed fund, per official site; 57% of it raised from founder LPs); total AUM not publicly disclosed. Below: its thesis in its own terms, what it looks for, the companies it has backed, and the practical route founders use to get a pitch in front of the team.

BonAngels Venture Partners funding: the investment thesis

A 'pacemaker' for startups: BonAngels acts as an enduring early-stage partner that works like a pacemaker in a marathon — keeping companies moving forward without burning out. The firm puts founders first ('startup founders are the real heroes of this era'), pairs each portfolio company with an executive partner and an investment associate, and keeps a long-term fund structure that does not pressure investment returns.

Cheque size and fund firepower

BonAngels Venture Partners has publicly disclosed $100 million (Pacemaker Fund 4, the firm's most recent seed fund, per official site; 57% of it raised from founder LPs); total AUM not publicly disclosed. That scale tells you two things: the firm can lead rounds rather than only follow, and it has the reserves to support winners in follow-ons. Founders should size their ask to the stage the firm plays at — Seed, Pre-A / Series A stage — rather than to the headline fund number.

Sectors and stages

The firm invests across Technology / IT (mobile, software, gaming), Fintech, Edtech / Education, Healthcare, Blockchain & Crypto, AI/ML, Robotics & Wearables, and its sweet spot is the Seed, Pre-A / Series A stage. If your startup sits outside those sectors, this is not your investor — a focused mandate cuts both ways. If you are inside it, you are speaking to a team that sees dozens of comparable companies a year and will benchmark you against them.
