Venla actively supports Maki’s portfolio companies in their growth and marketing operations. Before jumping into the world of venture capital, Venla gained strong expertise in marketing and communications on the other side of the table. She led marketing and communications for the health tech company Gubbe, scaling its marketing operations to new markets while building it into one of the Nordics’ most visible startup brands. Venla is always up for a chat about consumer brands, health tech, retail tech, or the intersection of marketing and sales. And in her free time, you can spot her running, cross-country skiing, or dreaming of cinnamon buns!

FOUNDERS Hear us Out.
When we invest, you as a founder get the entire Maki team to work with you, side by side.
And we don’t only support founders, we support the early hires, too. We know that building the early processes at a new venture is hard - and it becomes impossible without the right support network. Our community of entrepreneurs and doers at Maki House work side by side with the new entrants to supercharge their growth.
