Overview

Founded in 2017, edvinca is the first investment company dedicated exclusively to Educational Technology (EdTech). edvinca is the fruit of a joint venture between Hambro Perks, a growth investment firm based in London, and DLF Venture, a family-owned holding company based in Luxemburg. At edvinca, our aim is to help EdTech startups make large-scale impact. We are active investors who like to think global. We invest in early stage companies that we grow alongside their founders. We offer follow-on funding and deploy permanent capital to address our long-term vision.
