Capital raising services in Greece

Greece's venture market has grown substantially since the EquiFund launch, with a wave of Series A and growth-stage companies now ready to access international capital at scale.

Workable, Viva Wallet and Blueground have demonstrated that Greek founders can build globally competitive businesses in HR tech, payments and proptech - raising material rounds from European and US investors.

Flow focuses on mid- to late-stage Greek companies raising growth capital on the best available terms - providing an extensive VC investor network, end-to-end fundraise preparation, pitch deck building, financial and operating model construction, and full process management through investor selection, term sheet negotiation and close.

Raising venture capital in Greece

Greece's VC market has scaled materially since the EquiFund launch, with Athens as the centre. Local funds anchor seed and Series A; cross-border participation from European, US and Greek-diaspora investors is common at growth stage.

Greek VC industry conventions

Greek venture rounds typically use documentation aligned with broader European venture conventions, adapted for the Greek AE (joint-stock) and IKE (private capital company) structures. Pre-seed and seed rounds often use simplified templates.

Convertible loans and SAFEs

Convertible loan notes are the standard pre-priced instrument in Greece. SAFEs are used where the lead investor is US-based. Conversion typically at the next priced round at a discount or capped valuation.

Round structure norms

Priced rounds use 1x non-participating liquidation preference with broad-based weighted average anti-dilution. Founder vesting (4-year, 1-year cliff) is increasingly standard. Greek AE and IKE structures require shareholder resolutions plus GEMI filings for share issues.

EquiFund-anchored ecosystem

EquiFund provides anchor LP capital to most active Greek VC funds. Round documents typically accommodate EquiFund-related conditions where relevant. The fund-of-funds structure means most Greek venture capital indirectly carries EU and Greek state backing.

Foreign investment screening

Greece has implemented EU FDI screening (Regulation 2019/452) with notification required for non-EU investors taking control of Greek companies in sensitive sectors - defence, dual-use, AI, critical infrastructure. Adds notification time and conditions.

Closing mechanics

Capital increases and share transfers in Greek AE and IKE companies require shareholder resolutions and GEMI filings. Closings are typically same-day signing and funding with documents executed via DocuSign for non-notarial elements.

What if not VC? Non-equity funding in Greece

Greece's non-dilutive funding stack has scaled materially with EU PNRR funding - between R&D super-deduction, EquiFund, HFRI and Horizon Europe access, Greek startups have multiple paths to extend runway.

R&D super-deduction

Greek companies can claim 100% additional deduction on qualifying R&D expenditure (effectively 200% deduction). Materially reduces the post-tax cost of R&D and is the largest single tax-based non-dilutive incentive for Greek tech.

EquiFund

EquiFund anchors most active Greek VC funds. While indirect, its participation effectively underwrites a meaningful share of Greek venture capital. Provides indirect institutional capital across seed, Series A and growth-stage rounds.

HFRI / ELIDEK grants

Hellenic Foundation for Research and Innovation administers R&D grants across thematic and open calls. Slow but non-dilutive and a credibility marker for later VC.

EU PNRR and ESPA funding

Greek EU Recovery and Resilience Plan (Greece 2.0) plus ESPA structural funds flow through ministerial agencies for R&D, digitalisation and the green transition. The largest non-dilutive capital source for qualifying Greek SMEs.

EU funding access

Greek companies have full access to Horizon Europe programmes - EIC Accelerator grants (up to €2.5M), EIC Pathfinder, Eurostars and others. Slow but materially valuable for deeptech, climate and life-science companies.

Greek diaspora angel network

Greece's angel scene includes a meaningful Greek-diaspora component driven by US and European Greek-origin operators and post-IPO alumni. Tickets typically €25k-250k per investor; structured rounds often syndicated across 5-15 angels.

Why Flow Partners as your capital raising advisor?

Kraft KPI-driven narrative

Move fast and cut the BS

We have a strong appreciation for the power of speed and efficiency when fundraising. Expect a rigorously efficient deal process with minimized management distraction. Founders run the business, we pick up the heavy lifting.

Access relevant investors

Our close relationships with leading late-stage VC and growth equity investors as well as non-traditional capital providers, like family offices and sovereign wealth funds, enable us to find best-fit partners for a given scenario.

Valuation is only one part of the equation
