Discover what it's like to work with us, in the words of our own portfolio founders:
RAFAŁ Samborski, Chief Executive Officer, CARDIOMATICS
"It’s fair to say that it was Nina’s commitment that attracted other top European VCs to our seed round. After the round had been closed, Marta and her team were extremely supportive when it came to scientific, clinical, and regulatory activities. Their US network played an important role in the process of building our Scientific Board. In my opinion, Nina Capital should be the first port of call for anyone looking for an investor for a digital health startup in Europe."
ALVARO Sánchez-Ferro, Chief Medical Officer, LEUKO
"Nina Capital is a really smart and “hands on” investment group that has not only supported our company financially, but provided key top-notch advice. They have backed up important strategic decisions such as our pivotal trials design and the definition of our regulatory pathway. Their commitment is extraordinary and as an additional example they provided support in our fundraising process even pitching with us in front of an SME panel. We will definitely choose Nina Capital again."
ALICE Pelton, Chief Executive Officer, THE LOWDOWN
"Many investors can give you money, but very few can give you their trust. Nina Capital invested in The Lowdown at pre-seed stage, and have been incredibly trusting and supportive of me as a first-time Founder and of the company I want to build. Both Marta and Sebastian are responsive and respectful of my time—and the rollercoaster we're on. They're unflappable when things go wrong, and do everything they can to make introductions to people and investors in their networks to help."
ALEX Harb, Chief Executive Officer, LENA HEALTH
"Nina Capital has been among our top investors because they play an active role in supporting the growth of the business and our key performance metrics. When I've requested introductions to customer champions and strategic advisors from all of my investors, it has consistently been Marta and Sebastian who have rolled up their sleeves and navigated their network to make quality introductions. They understand the early-stage phase of startups and are an ideal partner for founders looking for the right investor. I thoroughly recommend Nina Capital."
TIMOTHE Laforest, Chief Executive Officer, EARLYSIGHT
"We really trust the people at Nina Capital. They have a perfect understanding of an early-stage start-up journey and always bring pertinent and constructive inputs to support the company. Their large network and very good reputation helped us a lot to open doors, find great development opportunities and strategic partners. They are always eager to help and very responsive when we ask for advice. I would highly recommend them to fellows co-founders!"
CAILIN Hardell, Founder, SEGMED
"Nina Capital has been extremely supportive and responsive as Segmed has gone through raising money, hiring, and expanding internationally. Marta and Sebastian don't hesitate to use their extensive networks and experience to give advice and make introductions any time we inquire. Their resourcefulness, groundedness, and good ideas make us confident that they will be one of our go-to investors across Segmed's lifetime."
MARKUS Holzer, Chief Executive Officer, CONTEXTFLOW
"As a founder I carefully pick the team and people I work with and I am very excited to have the smart and motivated team of nina capital supporting us on our journey to providing high quality healthcare to more people. Their vast expertise in the med-tech domain, network to potential partners and investors, combined with an understanding of early stage startups and what founders have to go through makes it a pleasure to work together with them."
GUIDO Magrin, Chief Executive Officer, TEIACARE
"Nina Capital is the seed stage health-tech venture capital firm with the best understanding of the dynamics of the healthcare space. They actively supported our fundraising process and helped sharpen the message around our value proposition, also by mobilizing the experts in their close network. The first venture capital firm to believe in TeiaCare, it has rapidly become our key ally for boosting our international presence."
CHRISTINA Vallgren, Chief Executive Officer, TERAPET
"Finding the right investor for your startup is as important as choosing co-founders. Nina Capital has brought us more than funding. The Nina Capital team provides support, advice and expert coaching, and thanks to their know-how and network, we have managed to build a stronger company ready for the next level."
DR. PHIL McElnay, CEO, MEDALL
"Everything Sebastian said in a Medium post about 'adding value' accurately reflected the Nina Capital team's ethos."
DAVID Bell, Chief Executive Officer, IO HEALTH
"For other #founders: Nina Capital brings incredible resources to the table to support their portfolio companies... equivalent to an additional 20% raise with no dilution. However, by far the most valuable perk IO gets from this round is access to Marta and Marc, both of which are founders in the health technology space... I've spoken to literally hundreds of #medtech investors, and not one asked more thoughtful questions, embodied a deeper commitment to supporting founders, or had a deeper understanding of the critical decisions facing IO Health, than the Nina Capital team."
JULIE Sufana, Chief Marketing Officer, Contextflow
"Nina Capital is one of our long-standing investors, and we can only underscore how special Marta G. Zanchi and her team are."
OLIVER Piepenstock, Founder & Chief Executive Officer, Noah Labs

EXTERNAL PROFESSIONALS & INDUSTRY TESTIMONIALS
Nina Capital has achieved a specific type of market dominance: the "specialist benchmark." In a market crowded by generalist technology investors, the firm’s reliance on the Biodesign framework provides a layer of technical due diligence that is viewed as "bang on" by industry veterans.

"It’s fair to say that it was Nina’s commitment that attracted other top European VCs to our seed round. After the round had been closed, Marta and her team were extremely supportive when it came to scientific, clinical, and regulatory activities. Their US network played an important role in the process of building our Scientific Board. In my opinion, Nina Capital should be the first port of call for anyone looking for an investor for a digital health startup in Europe."
