Sustainable Supply
Chains

We combine operational startup-experience and venture capital expertise with our enthusiasm for Supply Chain startups.

Introduction

We are

Prequel Ventures

Supply chains are the invisible force behind the flow of goods and services.
From raw materials to finished products, the interconnectedness of suppliers, manufacturers, distributors and retailers orchestrates the interplay between supply and demand.

Today, at a pivotal point in history, business leaders are tasked with making the decisions that will impact the future. We believe the answer lies in more resilient, more efficient, more transparent and more sustainable supply chains. And we believe in that enough to invest in the people who are making that vision a reality.

The purpose-driven approach

to investing

We are investors by trade and supply chain enthusiasts at heart. Our mission is to provide visionary founder teams with the operational support and financial backing they need to transform supply chains. To do this, we fund related start-ups from pre-seed stage onwards. Our aim is to help innovative teams turn their business ideas into financially viable ventures that align profits with principles.

Together with our portfolio companies and teams, we’re building a greener, stronger tomorrow, one supply chain solution at a time.

Our Team

With combined experience of over three decades, we are investment specialists who share a common drive to transform the inner workings of global trade, starting with supply chains.
