fork capital
Seed-stage investment vehicle managed by Aptki, operating under a pledge fund model where investors select both the startups and the amounts they invest.
Aptki operates as a financial intermediary, specializing in securing funding for enterprises engaged in strategic development and R&D projects. The firm's primary service involves managing the application process for public funding, leveraging its understanding of the requirements set by institutions like the Centre for Industrial Technological Development (CDTI).
In addition to public financing, Aptki manages the deal flow and screening processes for Fork Capital, a Pledge Fund-style investment vehicle. This involves identifying and evaluating seed-phase projects with solvent teams and viable business models for potential investment. The business model appears to be service-based, likely earning fees for successfully securing financing for its clients and for its management services provided to Fork Capital.
