It allows us to continue to deliver meaningful and strategic assistance to the outstanding community of European tech entrepreneurs who decide to welcome us on their journey,” says Omri Benayoun – General Partner, Partech Growth.
Building on their existing track record, having invested in the likes of Brandwatch, Ecovadis, Made.com, M-Files, NA-KD, and SendinBlue, the plan is to continue backing digitally native scale-ups poised to become the next generation of Europe’s Fortune 500, spanning enterprise and SMB software, consumer brands, healthcare, financial services, education, and other frontier technologies. With PG II the team plans to double down on its existing investment strategy and will partner with 12–15 exceptional companies, writing check sizes between €20-70m.
“We are excited to build conviction on and partner with even more ambitious founders across Europe, working with them to achieve their maximum potential. We’ll continue to leverage our years of operational and entrepreneurial expertise to provide them with hands-on support as they scale their way to global leadership,” adds Bruno Crémel – General Partner, Partech Growth.
