Secondly, we will launch a venture capital investment fund focus on early-stage, targeting Europe- and United States-based start-ups from miscellaneous verticals, which we will be able to support through finance, marketing, operations, expansion and mentorship.

My long-term goal for RBI Group with this new strategy is to grow its portfolio companies' overall value and make them competitive on a global market through innovation in any possible aspect of their businesses."
