Investors, mentors, partners and beyond.

Testimonials_Slide07_Konstantin Christoff

Our partnership with Eleven is resembling more of a life partner relationship: leading and inspiring by example, advising out of own experience rather than theories, supporting financially, opening a wealth of contacts, investors, clients and ecosystem platforms, channelling valuable and relevant knowledge our way. They have the experience to evaluate the early risk, share the same mindset of the entrepreneurs they team up with and know personally the struggle of starting something from 0 and making it a successful reality.

Testimonials_Slide06_Mihail Stoychev

Dynamic thinking, networking abilities and willingness to get involved are among the top 3 traits that make a great VC. I believe Eleven has all of them. They were like a superstar coach which you can use whenever necessary: making sure you are always on track and improving without being overwhelming.

Testimonials_Slide05_Dimitar Dimitrov

Sopharma Trading, thanks to the partnership with Eleven, launched an external and internal accelerator program – SOinventure - aiming to shift the healthcare focus from treating illness to sustaining wellness where the patient is in the center of all we do. The collaboration with Eleven enriched our capabilities so that Sopharma Trading could leverage upon future digital partnerships and launch successful patient-centric digital services. Together we have set the ground for establishing new business models that will develop seamless digital healthcare experiences and will add immense long-term value to the patients.

Testimonials_Slide04_Bozhidar Bozhanov

Eleven has been a great investor, striking the right balance of involvement – not too hands on, not too detached, and always looking for ways to help. As a seasoned investor with a diverse portfolio and a respected team, Eleven brings trust to the equation - a startup is not “just a startup” if it’s backed by a significant investor, and many customers acknowledge that. Since we raised our round we have talked to multiple startups and directed them to seek support from Eleven, based on our positive experience.
