Pitch us

Tell us what you are building. Every pitch is read by a partner, and you will hear back from a person within ten working days, whatever the answer.

What we look for

A founder with an unfair head start

Years inside the problem, a technical insight others have missed, or customers who already trust you.

Seed or Series A

We lead rounds from $1M to $15M and keep most of each fund in reserve for the rounds that follow.

Europe or North America

Teams based in, or selling first to, the markets our three offices know well.

One of our six sectors

Fintech, climate, health, infrastructure, software or industrials. If you are not sure, pitch anyway.

What happens next

1

A partner reads it

Within 10 working days

You get a reply from a person, with a reason if the answer is no.

2

A first conversation

45 minutes

With the partner who would lead. No deck walkthrough needed.

3

A partnership meeting

Within 3 weeks

You meet all six partners, and we decide that week.

Your company

Questions founders ask

Questions founders ask

Do I need a warm introduction?
