About the Role
First Momentum is a Pre-Seed investor for Deep Tech & B2B Tech founders in Europe. We have made over 40 investments, from Quantum Computing to In-space Propulsion, with many startups raising follow-on rounds from international top VCs. As most of us are engineers at heart and investors by choice, we support founders hands-on in the areas that make a difference. What our previous interns say… First Momentum offers a unique experience because you will get a much deeper knowledge of technology due to the focus on Deep Tech and the team of mostly engineers and scientists. (Nikolaus von Bary) You can source exciting opportunities, make independent calls, and drive research on your own terms. You rarely find this level of independence at larger firms. (Jerome Jaggi) There exists no "elbow mentality" at First Momentum. It’s a place with a friendly spirit where people can grow together.
