Launchpad
Baltic Ventures supports game-changing founding teams who are building the solutions and businesses of tomorrow.

Launchpad 2025 will focus on supporting founding teams to demonstrate commercial traction, by supporting them to establish and execute on an actionable strategy for product development and validation and how to present this in a way that will excite potential investors and customers.
