WHAT WE OFFER
A community built on trust and signal
COMMUNITY DEAL-FLOW
Member-Posted Opportunities
A private forum where members independently share and discuss opportunities across VC, RE, commodities, PE and digital assets. Member-posted content — not editorially curated or endorsed by TVN.
NETWORKING
Warm Introductions
Every introduction is a personal endorsement from Luke. Connect with the right people across the global community. Introductions are networking facilitation, not financial intermediation.
MARKET INTELLIGENCE
Community Insights
Member-written perspectives and analysis published for informational purposes only. Nothing published constitutes investment advice or a recommendation to buy or sell.
EVENTS & MEETUPS
Global & Local Events
Virtual Roundtables with plans for in-person chapter events. Community networking only — not investment or fundraising events.
IMPORTANT NOTICE
The Venture Network is a community and networking platform. Nothing on this website constitutes investment advice, a solicitation to invest, or a recommendation to buy or sell any financial instrument or asset. All content is for informational and networking purposes only. Members should conduct their own due diligence and seek independent professional advice before making any investment decision. The Venture Network is not a licensed investment intermediary and is not regulated by the Financial Supervision Commission of Bulgaria or any other financial regulatory authority.
The Founding story
The Venture Network did not begin as a platform. It began as a conversation — a small group of investors, operators, and deal professionals who kept finding each other useful and decided to stay in the same room.
There was no launch event. No press release. No product. Just a shared belief that the most valuable capital relationships are built quietly, over time, between people who trust each other.
The founding members are the people who were there at the beginning. Who contributed before there was anything to contribute to. Who helped shape the norms, the tone, and the standard that every new member enters into.
Created by the people that showed up first
ORIGIN
A WhatsApp Group
It started as a single message thread between people who kept referring deals to each other. It grew because the quality stayed high.
WHAT FOUNDING MEMBERS BUILT
The room others walk into
Every new member who joins TVN today enters a community whose culture, standards, and deal flow were shaped by the founding cohort.
"Every network worth being part of was built by a small group of people who decided it mattered before anyone else did."
WHAT HAS NOT CHANGED
Every member reviewed personally
From the first member to the most recent, every application is read by Luke before access is granted. That has never changed.
