Velo Partners

Velo Partners invests and manages a portfolio spanning the global gaming and gambling industry across mobile, online, land-based, real-money, social, B2B and B2C assets.

OUR APPROACH

Velo typically invests in Series A or early growth stage rounds. Our ideal investment candidates demonstrate strong early traction and a clear understanding of their unit economics and growth trajectory.

We also work in association with a gaming accelerator called RNG FOUNDRY for earlier stage investment opportunities. Once invested, we typically follow our rights for later investment rounds and work with management to define good corporate governance and reporting.

We will opportunistically evaluate later stage investments on an ad-hoc basis.
