Backing immigrants who build epic companies in Europe.
From Day 1.

“No one is a prophet in their own land.”

No Label Ventures backs immigrant entrepreneurs.

Why immigrants?

Because uprooting your life is the purest entrepreneurial act, you risk everything, rebuild from zero, bet on yourself. And because long before that suitcase was packed, you had already broken free of the labels assigned at your dinner table: play it safe, know your place.

Immigration breeds uncommon advantages: the humility of starting at the bottom, the determination to learn and grow fast, and the conviction to ignore inherited labels. It is no surprise, then, that immigrants account for ~50% of US and ~40% of UK unicorns (link).

No Label exists to spot and supercharge that talent before the market catches up.

If this is your story, let’s talk.

Our Portfolio

Hi, I’m Ramzi.

I'm the General Partner of No Label Ventures. I first started working at J.P. Morgan and have more than ten years of investing experience as an angel at the early stage and as a late-stage investor at KKR and Silver Lake.

I was born to immigrant parents from Lebanon. After coming back to Lebanon as a teenager, I immigrated to France for my studies and later to the UK for work. I'm a mechanical engineer by training and I speak French, Arabic, and English.

Some frequently asked questions

  • It's never too early for founders to reach out to us. We frequently start talking to founders when they are still employed, working on an idea, looking for a co-founder, or building a minimum viable product (MVP). And we often invest before a product or revenue is generated.

  • We are often the first to back a startup. We do that unconditionally, and typically before a lead VC. We then introduce the founders we back to other investors, VCs and angels.

  • We invest between $150k and $250k in each round, and can often invest more in collaboration with our investors/limited partners. We are also able to provide follow-on investments.

  • We invest capital and make beneficial introductions to the founders we back, namely to angels, VCs and corporate clients (typically Private Equity owned enterprises).

  • We are sector agnostic.
