AETHERION Worldwide is the fundraising and landing practice of AETHERION Capital.
Raise your European round.
AETHERION Worldwide is the fundraising practice for startups and scale-ups from outside Europe. We make your company ready for European investors, find the money that does not cost you equity, and raise the round with you.
One route, four moves.
Most companies run these as four separate tracks with four separate advisors. That is precisely where money and time are lost: each track compounds the others.
Prepare
The equity story, the numbers, the data room, the cap table. What an investor asks, answered before they ask it.
Fund
Subsidies, tax rulings and grants: the money that does not cost you equity, secured before the round.
Raise
From the first investor conversation to the closed round, run as a process rather than a hope.
Land
Entity, visas, banking, housing. Run with specialist partners so the round stays the work.
What we will not promise you.
We plan around the slow steps instead of hiding them. That is what a structured landing is.
How the route works →
Dutch incorporation takes nine days in the standardised domestic case. For a foreign founder, the same steps run one to two weeks once the document package is complete, and the business bank account, which nobody plans for, can take considerably longer. Anyone who promises you a bank account in nine days has not opened one for a foreign parent company lately.
