3/13 Venture capital is clearly associated with innovation… ICT = Information and Communication Technologies Source: Yozma after USA Census, OECD, IVC Research Center, CBS

4/13 …but small companies receive little attention from VC investors ► Average deal size is increasing year by year ► There is a clear and continuing trend towards regionalisation of PE/VC in CEE ► Seed and start-up investments are outside the focus of most PE/VC funds => SMEs have very limited access to equity funding

5/13 ‘Death valley’ is a serious problem Source: prof. dr inż. J.G. Wissema, Technostarters, why and how?

6/13 This all means an equity gap ► Equity gap results from relatively high cost of preparing and monitoring of small projects as compared to those large ones. ► Additionally, small projects usually carry higher risks, which further discourages managers from investing. ► On the other hand, small innovative projects can also produce above-average rates of return. An equity gap means that the market fails to provide enough equity financing for small investment projects

7/13 Response to the equity gap ► KFK is a holding fund that was established with the aim to reduce the equity gap persistent on the Polish market. ► KFK invests in VC funds targeting Polish SMEs. ► We target professional management teams with experience in VC-related investments and the focus on innovative and high-growth projects.

8/13 KFK as a holding fund ► As a holding fund, KFK invests in VC funds which target small and medium-sized companies. In the coming years, our investment portfolio will grow to around 20 VC funds. VC Fund Companies NCF Private investors Public Investors (EU) … ~ 20 funds

9/13 Our investment process ► We have designed our investment process to meet best practice that works at recognized fund-of-fund investors

10/13 Our investment activity ► Investment activity commenced in 2007 ► 2 portfolio funds: BBI Seed Fund and Helix Ventures Partners (MCI) ► Joint cap of those two funds is PLN 100 million. Focus on early-stage high-tech projects ► Next bidding procedure: April PLN 150 m at disposal, 3x as much as in the first round
