First Momentum Ventures is run by former student entrepreneurs who built one of Germany's largest student entrepreneurship organizations, giving them deep connections to university tech ecosystems that they use to find extremely technical PhD-founded teams and research-origin projects at the idea stage. The fund positions itself as engineers at heart who run unusually detailed technical diligence themselves rather than using external advisors, focusing exclusively on pre-seed technical B2B and deep tech across Europe before helping companies raise from top-tier European seed funds.
