Sequence Ventures has a panel of highly qualified technical and investment advisors who provide mentorship to startups in the portfolio.

The company has also created a network of strategic alliances with more than 45 venture capital firms and accelerators in the European region who provide matchmaking and exit opportunities for portfolio companies.
