We are early-stage
We are tailor-made
We are your investor
APX has the drive, experience, and leadership to support founders as they turn good ideas into great ones. Find out more about our philosophy, or start your journey by sending us your pitch deck here.
The APX Philosophy
Building a better future for startups and society
We are tailor-made:
We believe at pre-seed stage, founders need more than cash and a solid network. That’s why we offer tailor-made venture development specifically targeted at the startups’ needs, to enable them to get follow-on funding from further investors.
We believe in people:
We look for smart, highly ambitious teams that want to lead, execute, and win. We believe in a representative set of people, in equality, and in establishing inclusive workplaces to boost creativity and innovation.
We meet founders at eye-level:
We become their confident, potent supporter and straightforward, challenging sparring partner. We help our founders as they become stronger and build sustainable companies.
We value the commitment of our investors:
We attract extraordinary individuals and venture capital funds, eager to invest in our startups next. We acknowledge their entrepreneurial and venture spirit.
We build meaningful business partnerships:
We team up with leading corporations to strengthen our tailor-made venture development or investors network. This makes our portfolio companies more successful.
We expect a lot from founders:
We want them to demonstrate full ownership, build exceptional businesses that thrive at a global scale and have a positive impact on people and business. We invite founders to challenge APX as their investor and sounding board, and get as much as possible out of APX.

What matters to us

Founders first
We’re not here to be the center of attention. We want you and your company to be in the spotlight, and we’ll help get you there with our extensive support network and resources.
Dreamers & doers
We –and that includes you!– are ambitious about our future goals, and we have an exceptional team working hard to make them come true.


Done is better than perfect
We’ve noticed that the final 20% of a project can take up to 80% of the time. We’re here to make things happen, and that includes mistakes—they’re the only way to learn.
Meet the team
We are here for you.
