Valerian Funds' vision is to be the world's preferred source of growth capital for online businesses accessible at the click of a button. Simple, Fast and Non-Dilutive From startup founders to startup founders, we have been there – we know how hard it is to raise capital. Your business needs to tick a particular box with a VC or have a minimum track record for a bank manager. Ultimately, a successful fund raise is less a testament to the quality of your business and more a consequence of being at the right place at the right time – not a very comforting thought. The founding team at Valerian set out to create a product that would eliminate the serendipitous element of fund raising and instead root the investment decision in hard data – eliminating the self-selecting criteria of who you know and instead focusing solely on performance. The team at Valerian brings in a wealth of unique specific expertise that aims to provide you with the best available, most flexible and ultimately cheapest cost of capital available for your growth.

Aeris is a Copenhagen based bottled cocktail brand, handcrafted to the highest of standards. The concept is simple: everybody should be able to enjoy a high quality, perfectly balanced cocktail, regardless of their skillset or financial status. More often than not, a really well balanced cocktail, made with high quality ingredients, is only really accessible in high end restaurants, hotels and bars. For those with the financial means to enjoy cocktails in these places, Aeris cocktails is simply a really nice supplement when one wants to have an equally good tasting drink at home (the importance of this rose during the pandemic and lockdown). For those with less deep pockets, Aeris is simply put some bottled luxury for a decent price. Our recipes are an echo from Barcelona where our founders started their journey, and every cocktail is handcrafted and bottled to the highest of standards. The essence of Aeris is all about wanting to step out of the box, do something that feels fresh and exciting, a new concept embracing that amazing Copenhagen vibe. Our brand oozes of luxury, and yet, is very affordable, for anybody who wants some atmosphere at any place, at any time. Sustainability and quality is key for us and so we have a zero plastic policy and refill options to ensure our bottles get reused. The founders are currently trying to find the time to keep up with the growth and demand, and are in need of a cool team of people to help in the journey of taking Aeris out into the rest of the world.
