As a founder in the portfolio, you’ll be plugged into a network of other founders across different stages through chat groups, online webinars, portfolio dinners, yearly summits, and business development trips to other countries. Regional Expansion: With investments across more than seven countries, we have local partners in each country, from fellow CEOs to LPs to corporate investors. We co-invest with local investors to tap local expertise and help open new networks. Network and Fundraising: We’ve built a deep global network from Southeast Asia to Silicon Valley with corporates, governments and conglomerates. Our Partners hail from across three continents with a rich global network open to our portfolio.

We’re constantly learning from our portfolio and share learnings and best practices with all our founders. Recruiting: We know you’re raising money to hire great talent and we help source that talent for you. Our events plug us into great communities, our brand helps senior executives confide in us that they’re looking to make a jump, and our newsletters help us promote your needs to thousands of potential hires.

Deep SaaS and Cloud expertise. There’s never been a better time to invest in European SaaS and Cloud. We’re open to investment opportunities of any category, but we specialise in these areas: Cloud Computing The future won't be powered on technologies of the past – and it certainly won't be on-premise. The cloud is more widely used and continues to grow its capability and penetrate deeper layers of the enterprise. Computing Cloud companies provide enabling technologies and help their customers harness opportunities in front of them, often hidden in dense data and fragmented systems scattered across digital and physical locations. They’re often developer-first and product-led.

Founder-friendly principles. We believe how we behave is as important as what we do. Our team follows a set of guiding principles to keep everyone focused on the destination while having fun on the journey. Have fun, make money: For us there is no point in one without the other. We’re friendly and informal, but driven by a relentless hunger to win. We intend to deliver tremendous returns to our investors but have fun while we’re doing it. Challenge everything: We hold no regard for the status quo. Boundaries are there to be broken. We are open to challenge, and challenge openly, fueled by a belief in a diversity of views and a desire to learn. Do the right thing: We treat everyone the same and aim to show empathy and understanding to all, no matter our differences. We do what we say we will and expect the same in return. (ie Don’t be a dick). Play the long game: We aim to build powerful partnerships, lasting relationships and long term value. We don’t just invest in companies - we invest in people, in relationships and in the overall eco-system for the benefit of all.
