Funding Stages
Seed Investing
Every startup needs fuel to grow. Seed capital is the life blood for every founder. Our Seed fund is designed to allow talented founders start the building journey.
We participate as seed investors, and we also arrange finance based on our investor network
Venture Investing
Venture Capital is second stage fuel for every great startup. Once you have a viable product, and real customer demand, you need to turn on Venture Capital and scale quickly.
Simon Kelly
Simon Kelly was a co-founder of Emex Software, and through building this business he experienced the challenges that confront every technology start up and scale up today.
Simon's foundation originates in real estate, and he is also the founder of RQTwo which is a commercial real estate fund in Ireland.
Real Estate and SaaS both face the same challenge. Concepts are born in our imaginations, and then the reality of building and financing kicks in, and both sectors carry the same basic question.
How will I raise the money to build my company?
Now as a General Partner of Silicon Docks Ventures, Simon wants to help the next generation of Irish founders succeed with their companies.
