At Tioga we focus on being the best European long-term partner for exceptional Web3 entrepreneurs.
Our beliefs
Individual Sovereignty
We invest in the great awakening of the sovereign individual and the potential of peer to peer distributed networks to reshape the nature of reality.
Data Ownership
In Web2 data was “the new oil” – in Web3 data is open and abundant, allowing developers and creators to break up the Web2 data monopolies.
Open Finance
Permissionless blockchains allow for interoperability and give developers and users alike access to financial products at a global scale, from day one.
Privacy
True sovereignty comes with privacy, a fundamental human right to protect the minority from the majority.
investment mandate
We focus on the ‘picks and shovels’ with a particular interest in DeFi infrastructure, NFT infrastructure, compliance, and applications that benefit from Web3’s composability features.
We have the flexibility to hold both equity as well as crypto assets on the balance sheet.
When it comes to token investments, we strongly believe in aligning incentives between entrepreneurs, the community, and investors.
We invest from Pre-Seed to Series B stages
Europe has over 20x less dedicated capital available than in the US, while the number of deals on both continents is in the same ballpark.
This funding dislocation in the market, coupled with a strong foundation of technical talent and regulatory clarity is why we focus on Europe.
We take a long-term approach to supporting entrepreneurs.
It has been a pleasure working with Tioga Capital – an incredible value-add for founders.

Tioga is a very valuable investor for Scorechain: as a lead investor, they have helped us connect with key European investors and their role is important in the recruitment and growth process. Also post-investment, Patrick and Nicolas are always available while placing great confidence in the management team. We are convinced that they will be able to support Scorechain in the next stages of its development.

As soon as we got to know Tioga it was clear that they had a thorough understanding of the DeFi market. Even before their investment decision was made, they introduced us to a valuable partner who later joined the investment round and is now our single biggest client on top.

The Tioga team has been incredibly helpful to Casa from the very first connection we had with them. They were thorough and thoughtful in their diligence even before investing in us, and they have displayed the same level of care and attention to detail in all of our interactions since. I greatly appreciate their view on the European market and assistance as we expand to that market and beyond.
