Arches Capital

What they do

Arches Capital is an investment organization that empowers early-stage B2B software founders with capital, sector expertise, and an active network of angels, operators, and VCs. It invests early and remains closely involved, helping validate go-to-market strategies, build repeatable sales engines, and accelerate commercial traction through strategic intros and follow-on funding. The firm focuses primarily on early-stage B2B software companies in the Benelux region, where it can provide hands-on support to help companies scale confidently.

What they look for

Arches Capital backs ambitious founders building the next generation of B2B (and B2B2C) software. They invest early-often leading the pre-seed round with the first cheque-and stay involved as companies grow, providing both capital and deep sector expertise. They explicitly seek out strong, complementary founding teams building "need to have" (rather than "nice to have") solutions. They look for customer-obsessed teams with a deep understanding of customer pain points, a clear go-to-market (GTM) approach or growth plan, and a solid grasp of market dynamics, sizing, and existing alternatives.
