About

henQ is a Seed and Series A venture capital fund. We invest across Europe in B2B startups with a software component, writing tickets of EUR 2-5M. Companies we invest in range from having their first embryonic product and a few pilot customers, to having EUR 2-3M in annual recurring revenue being ready to properly scale. Our assets under management are approximately EUR 200M. Our latest fund - raised in 2020 - is EUR 80M in size. The returns of all our funds are among the best in the market.

Famous brand name funds like Sequoia are reaping the benefits of what they did in the past and defending their existing great position. At henQ, we are equally as ambitious but our work is much more exciting, as together we are building the next great success story in VC rather than defending a legacy. We do so by constructing a high conviction portfolio (making on average 3 new investments / year) and only investing in the very few deals we truly love. The results are top returns and the wonderful privilege of only working with people we admire.

Joining now, you could still become one of the key players in our team.
