Where capital meets clarity.
Two ventures built to move real capital. AETHER matches founders, funds and investors through AI-driven introductions, and IRIS Vision Capital has already helped raise more than $25M for funds and founders, working inside ecosystems like Unicorn Factory Lisboa, One Planet Fund and StartUp Portugal.
raised for funds and founders
Trusted inside leading ecosystems
Capital matching is broken on both sides.
Founders and fund managers waste months pitching investors who were never going to say yes. Investors and LPs wade through decks and fund materials that were never going to be a fit. Both sides pay an enormous opportunity cost for a matching problem that better information, and the right ecosystem, could solve from the start.
The old approach treats fundraising as a numbers game. The better approach treats it as a fit problem, solved through AI-driven matching and a network already built and proven.

Two ventures, one pillar.

AETHER, AI-matched capital introductions
- Intelligent matchmaking layer for LPs, GPs and founders.
- Aligned on stage, sector and check size before the first call.
- No cold lists. Real fit instead of guesswork.
IRIS Vision Capital, fundraising and deal flow
- Capital raised for investment funds and vetted founders.
- LP and institutional network across Europe, Africa and the US.
- Partnered with Unicorn Factory Lisboa, One Planet Fund, StartUp Portugal.
- Curated deal flow, including EnviraBoard in circular-economy materials.
Strategic advisory and growth
- Growth and scale-up support for SMEs and founders.
- Guidance through early-stage and growth-stage challenges.
- Investor roundtables, startup showcases and masterclasses.
Founder and fund readiness on one side, investor mandates on the other, matched on information instead of cold introductions.

Built on relationships, not cold lists.
More than $25M raised for funds and founders to date, built on relationships inside some of the most active startup and investment ecosystems in Europe, including Unicorn Factory Lisboa, One Planet Fund and StartUp Portugal, alongside a growing network of institutional partners and limited partners across Europe, Africa and the US.
