Birdhouse Ventures

Birdhouse Ventures operates as a venture fund, intrinsically linked to its accelerator program, offering capital and strategic guidance. Its model integrates experienced entrepreneurs as venture partners, providing hands-on support to portfolio companies during and post-acceleration. This ensures businesses leverage a deep knowledge network and international connections, particularly fostering innovation within AgeTech.

The foundation for Birdhouse Ventures stems from the Birdhouse accelerator, established in 2016. Jan-Willem Callebaut, co-founder and partner, with Alexandra Buekens, recognized comprehensive support was vital beyond capital. Their insight was to build an ecosystem where extensive mentorship and strong networks enhance startup success, attracting further investment.

Birdhouse Ventures invests in diverse growth companies, prioritizing AgeTech solutions aspiring to lead the European market. Its long-term vision is to cultivate a robust ecosystem of entrepreneurs, mentors, and investors, becoming a pivotal force in European startup development. They aim to drive innovation and contribute to the success of their portfolio and the wider entrepreneurial landscape.
