Overview
Failup Ventures is a Finnish-American venture capital fund with offices in Helsinki and San Francisco. The firm invests in pre-seed and seed-stage startups in the United States and the Nordic countries.

In November 2023, the firm announced the first €30 million closing of its new €50 million fund.
