About Petr Šmíd

Petr Šmíd advocates for building a permanent trans-Atlantic platform that keeps CEE founders rooted in the region while connecting them to U.S. capital, rather than pushing companies to relocate abroad. He brings unusual operational experience from scaling Google Pay and Google Assistant to millions of users across CEE, which he now uses to help startups navigate international expansion at the critical late seed to Series A stage.

Avg Check Size

Rockaway Ventures is a sector-focused fund that targets deep, complex industries like energy transition, industrial automation, supply chains, and defense where many VCs are hesitant to invest, rather than generic SaaS or consumer apps. The fund combines early-stage investing with late-stage platform support from Rockaway Capital's institutional infrastructure, while focusing on European founders building in the US and maintaining a high-discipline, returns-driven approach with over 140% return on invested capital from prior investments.
