Check out the latest episode of the EUVC podcast where Andreas Munk Holm & Jeppe Høier interviewed our MD Petr Míkovec: https://lnkd.in/d6JC3v4h
Petr shares three main insights:
1) Our unique structure with our LPs ČEZ & the European Investment Bank (EIB) which we can only encourage all CVCs to consider and benefit from.
2) The important role of systemic coaching which we at Inven use throughout the investment process and to nurture the relationship with our portfolio founders. 🤝🫶🏼
3) An opportunity to look at Petr as a person and how writers of life-changing books such as Yuval Noah Harari, Viktor Frank and Simon Sinek inspired him and ultimately the values Inven is based on. 📚
Below a short excerpt of the interview about three deals we at Inven did 10 years ago, to set us up for success.

Thank you David for being a great part of our team, for supporting us with your fresh energy and sharing your experience with your peers!
Really curious to see what the next years will bring to you 🚀🌎

Dear friends of Inven, We would like to thank you for your support and true friendship we have experienced together throughout this brittle, anxious, non-linear and incomprehensible year (https://lnkd.in/eNBhctjr). Looking ahead the pressure is only going to increase and that requires more and more courage to lead. Interestingly, the root of the word courage is “cor” – the Latin word for heart. Let’s stay true to our heart, being honest with who we are and what we feel. Let’s lead with our heart in mind in 2025.
Merry Christmas,
Your Inven team
