Corporate Venture Capital Investment Funds

Vestel Ventures VCIF

Vestel Ventures was established in 2015 as a corporate venture capital (CVC). It operates with an evergreen fund structure, meaning it does not have a fixed fund size. Up until November 2024, it has invested in 28 startups across various sectors, located not only in Türkiye but also in countries like France, the UK, and the USA. A common trait among all these startups is their focus on technology development within their respective fields. Vestel Ventures has made investments in diverse areas such as energy, nanomaterials, cybersecurity, artificial intelligence, mobility, smart city solutions, and automotive technologies. Additionally, it manages Parlak Bi’ Fikir, Zorlu Holding's intrepreneurship program, which has led to investments in five startups. In 2022, Vestel Ventures partnered with Tacirler Portfolio Management to establish the Gelecek Etki Fonu (Future Impact Fund), a venture capital investment fund.
