Seedcamp New Venture Funds

������ BREAKING: Seedcamp Closes $320M For New Venture Funds\n\nLondon-based seed fund Seedcamp has raised $220 million for a new seed fund and a $100 million growth fund to back breakout portfolio companies. The firm plans to maintain its high-volume strategy by writing around 100 checks per fund.\n\nSeedcamp’s 2014 third fund turned $23 million into over $446 million, posting a 50.3% net internal rate of return.\n\nThe third fund achieved a 13.32x Distributed to Paid-In Capital return, outperforming the 1.88x average for European funds raised in the same year.\n\nA core driver was a $400,000 investment into Revolut, which returned over 1000x before the startup reached its current valuation talks of over $100 billion.\n\nIts 2017 fourth fund has returned 0.62x to investors so far, carrying unrealized artificial intelligence stakes in Synthesia and Fluidstack.\n\n\"Our vision is that exceptional European and British talent can go global and win.\" — Reshma Sohoni\n\nVenture capital returns of this scale are a historic statistical anomaly for European funds, which traditionally struggle to return real cash to investors. However, ballooning fund sizes nearly 100x from inception forces an inevitable shift from precise outlier hunting to high-volume asset deployment.\n\nSource: Forbes Innovation
