Seedcamp VII

Seedcamp has raised a huge $320m for its 7th early stage fund and $100m to double down on its winners!\n\nThe firm was co-founded in 2007 by @rsohoni and @cape with a $2.5m fund.\n\nIt's now led by Reshma and Carlos and manages an insane $1bn AUM.\n\nIt's become one of the leading early-stage funds in Europe. @seedcamp Fund III has now returned over 13x DPI to its LPs, and Fund IV sits at over 5x net TVPI.\n\nSome of the companies it has backed include @RevolutApp, @Wise, @UiPath, @SynthesiaIO and @fluidstack.\n\nToday it is announced raising an additional $320m.\n\nThe money is split with $220m for Seedcamp VII, the flagship first check fund, and $100m for the Select fund, which focuses primarily on backing portfolio winners as they scale toward Series B and beyond.\n\nI spoke to Will Bennett to get all the details about the new fund.\n\nTimestamps:\n\n - Introduction\n - Seedcamp’s $220M + $100M funds\n - Why the funds are getting bigger\n - Why Seedcamp launched a select fund\n - European founders moving to the US\n - How founder profiles are changing\n - What pre-seed means today\n - Defence and frontier technologies\n - What founders get from Seedcamp\n - Building a stronger US presence\n - The secret behind Seedcamp’s success\n\nCongrats to @tom_wils, @SiaHouchangnia, @_billiambennett, @felixjmartinez_, @rsohoni, @cee and the whole @seedcamp team!
