Small money, precisely placed, builds real businesses.

A micro fund is a small pool of capital deployed in small tickets, often as loans rather than equity. Where traditional venture funds write €1M+ checks and take 15–25% of a company, a micro fund writes €5K–€15K checks and takes nothing but repayment.

The thesis is simple: most early businesses don't need a war-chest. They need the next batch of inventory, the next market test, the next hire. The right amount, at the right moment, changes the trajectory — without giving up ownership.

In 2025, female-founded companies received less than 2% of global venture capital.

That number has barely moved in a decade. It's not because women build worse businesses — the data shows the opposite. It's because the system that allocates capital was built for, and by, someone else. Tickets are too big. Diligence is too slow. Networks are too closed.

A micro fund is a different shape entirely. Small enough to be deployed quickly to founders the VC machine overlooks. Essential enough to fund the next batch, the next market, the next hire. Repeated often enough that it starts to close the gap, one founder at a time.

At Red Pakket, we deploy €5,000 to €15,000 to female founders with an MVP and traction. Every check is a loan, not an equity investment — a small red envelope, sent with real conviction. That means:

• You retain 100% ownership of your company. No dilution, ever.
• You keep full control of your board, your roadmap, and your exits.
• You pick the payback track that fits your cash cycle — flat-rate or shared-upside.
• You get warm intros into our operator network across the US, EU, and China.
