Treeo VC

Treeo VC is a Miami-based early-stage venture capital firm founded in 2023 to back immigrant tech founders building and scaling companies in the United States. The fund focuses on AI-native, post-revenue B2B startups at the pre-seed and seed stages, writing cheques generally in the $100,000 to $1 million range, generally as a co-investor, and invests across sectors including artificial intelligence, fintech, agtech and biotech. Beyond capital, Treeo positions itself as a bridge between global startups and US market opportunities, supporting immigrant founders and their diverse teams as they expand into the United States; it also runs Signal, a $30,000 investment program aimed at student founders, recent graduates and dropouts building in AI and deep tech. To date the firm has made roughly 13 to 15 investments, a notably international portfolio in which many companies are Y Combinator alumni and a large share were founded by Turkish founders, with the broader founder base spanning the US, Japan, Russia, Iran, Algeria, South Korea, China, India, Canada and Turkey. Notable portfolio companies include Cognizo, Tamarind Bio, Zavo and Sentez. Treeo VC was co-founded by Didem Altop, Cigdem Toraman and Arzu Tekir, and operates with a team of around 15 people including several partners. By focusing on immigrant founders building AI-native B2B companies and helping them enter the US market, Treeo VC backs a globally diverse cohort of early-stage entrepreneurs while providing hands-on go-to-market and expansion support.
