Jakub Dziwisz
Founder of Orbify, ex-CTO of Airhelp
"The partners at S20 are founder-focused, practical, and always ready to brainstorm. Their hands-on support and deep understanding of early-stage challenges have been invaluable throughout our pre-Series A journey, especially in shaping our fundraising strategy."
-
Luis Orsini-Rosenberg
Founder of Cycle
"The S20 team, whom I first met through their SpeedUp investment in Cycle, supported our growth into a European leader. They are trustworthy VCs who truly support founders — exemplifying how European venture capital should work."
-
Kamil Rejent
Founder, CEO Survicate
"S20 (former SpeedUp Group) has always given us a lot of leeway and trust. At the same time, it always came to our rescue with valuable contacts when we were in need. Thanks to these contacts, already in two rounds new investors appeared after an earlier intro from funds managing partners."

Max Salamonowicz
Founder of StoryWeaver, Head of AI @Migam
"S20 Partners backed my previous startup, and I worked with them for few years. While those ventures didn't succeed, they consistently demonstrated fairness and genuine partnership. The true measure of a VC's quality is how they handle challenging times - and S20 excelled at that."

Alexander Reinhhold
CEO Convex Energy / Epex Spot Exchange Council
"During my tenure leading Resonanz, I worked closely with the founders of S20. Their support during the energy crisis of 2022-2023 was invaluable. With their backing, we successfully navigated immense challenges, ultimately guiding Resonanz Energy to a successful acquisition."
