What we do?
Venture Building
We turn great ideas into successful businesses together with talented co-founders and management. We are considered as hands-on institutional venture builders, summarized in three key roles; strategically active shareholders, idea-stage high-risk investors, guardians of the collective stakeholder interest. From foundation to exit, from laying down the first bricks with the initial team and cutting the first check, Scalee backs its ventures and makes available everything that is needed to succeed.
Scalee has set eyes on CEE & MENA; these regions are still relatively early-stage in their professional venture environment development compared to mature markets and present underserved markets in various sectors, which can offer high returns on investment with relatively low initial capital outlay compared to more developed markets like Western Europe or the US.
Our approach is opportunistic, with a preferential focus on high-potential sectors such as mobility, proptech, and longevity.
Ecosystem Investing
Institutional Investments: Acting as a fund-of-funds, we strategically invest in venture capital funds that align with our ambitions and ecosystem objectives. This approach enables us to stay at the forefront of emerging trends and innovative solutions, enhancing the value we bring to our internal venture building initiatives and private equity activities. Additionally, by cultivating strong relationships within the venture capital community, we create synergies that benefit our stakeholders, particularly by supporting fundraising efforts through access to a broad network of established VCs and investors.
Private Investments, Acquisitions: Via our private investment activity, we seek to invest in or acquire businesses which are synergic to our direct and/or indirect portfolio of companies and therefore compound the ecosystem's growth in addition to supporting the portfolio ventures' exit strategies.

We’ve been building the Hungarian, Austrian and - for some time - the Irish markets of Bolt since the early days. Bolt is building a future where people don’t need to own personal cars to move around safely and conveniently. A future where people have the freedom to use transport on demand, choosing whatever vehicle's best for each occasion — be it a car, scooter, or e-bike.
