Guillermo Espinós
Co-Founder
We are Jorge (1986) and Guillermo Espinós (1990), two brothers who founded VB Group in 2009.
Just like the startups we invest in, we once sought minority capital too. Most of those partners have been with us for over 15 years. We know what we're talking about.
After all these years of management, VB Group has evolved from a small leisure travel agency into a 360º corporate mobility and entertainment group, with presence in several international markets and over 12 global offices.
We manage a group that in 2026 will have revenues exceeding 250 million euros and a team of nearly 400 professionals. It's true that we never stop learning, but we know how to do it and now we want to help you do it too.

Why Ganimedes VC?
Flexibility
We adapt our investment size to your startup's development stage, with tickets from €30K to €300K and the ability to follow on in later rounds.
Speed
We deeply respect founding teams' time, so we move fast — both in giving a yes or no, and when it comes to disbursement. We know what matters most is that entrepreneurs can focus on running the company, not on fundraising rounds.
Human approach
We've lived through challenging situations as entrepreneurs. We strive to empathize and create value in difficult moments, bringing calm and prioritizing values.
Strategic support
We share knowledge and best practices with our portfolio companies, offering mentorship, templates and personalized support based on their needs.
Network
We leverage our network of investors and entrepreneurs to connect our portfolio companies with the right people and boost their commercial growth. In some cases, we co-invest with other VCs, families or close investors.
Investment thesis
What we believe
We don't invest in categories, we invest in people building enduring companies. These are the principles that guide every decision we make.
Operators backing operators
We've built a company from zero to 250M€ in revenue. We know the weight of a payroll, a long fundraising round and an uncomfortable decision. That's why we speak the founder's language, not the analyst's.
Patient, minority capital
We come in as minority partners and we stay. We don't force premature exits or impose artificial timelines: we walk alongside the team for as long as the company needs to find its ceiling.
Spain as a competitive edge
We believe in Spanish talent and its ability to build global businesses from here. We invest exclusively in Spanish-capital projects because we know the market, the networks and the biases that need to be overcome.
Conviction over early traction
We look for real businesses with at least six months of traction and unit economics that make sense. We don't chase hype: we prefer companies that grow because they solve a costly problem, not because they raise spectacular rounds.
Fast and honest decisions
We say yes or no in less than five days. If we invest, we do so on clean terms with no surprises. If we don't, we tell you why. Founders' time is the scarcest asset in the entire industry.
If you recognize yourself in these principles, we want to meet you.
