At Cherry Ventures, we believe venture capital should be built by founders, for founders. Founded in 2012 by Filip Dames and Christian Meermann, Cherry is a pan-European early-stage VC firm led by former entrepreneurs and operators who've scaled companies like Zalando, Spotify, and Uber. We don't just invest - we activate. Our team works alongside founders through the ups and downs of building a startup, drawing from our own experiences to provide hands-on support that matters. We're pan-European by design, with teams in Berlin, London, and Stockholm, and we back founders across all industries who dare to challenge the status quo. We've partnered with 130+ portfolio companies, leveraging our network of operators from Dropbox, N26, Wolt, Doordash, and more. More than 50% of our fund is reserved for follow-on investments because we're in it for the long haul. We invest in anomaly, the red thread, and personality - and we're looking for founders with the wit, heart, and guts to build lasting futures.
