SASTIC

SASTIC calls itself the first-check investor for Armenian science and technology. It's a membership community of engineers, scientists, founders, investors and other professionals spread across 15 countries, working in fields from IT and AI to law, chemistry and biology.

The group reports 107 members involved and says it has reviewed 146 projects, funding 12 of them so far with 6 more in the pipeline. Beyond direct investment, it offers mentorship — members running working sessions with founders — and connects startups to its wider network. It also lists support reaching 59 beneficiaries, including 5 surgeries and 33 tied to Artsakh (Nagorno-Karabakh).

Applications, membership and donations run through its website.
