The earlier-than-expected first close of Isomer Capital’s third flagship fund continues the proven strategy of investing in Europe’s best venture capital funds and their breakout companies

The TL: DR

• Isomer Capital’s track record and reputation as a ‘partnership’ investor has enabled the firm’s third flagship fund to reach a substantial first close ahead of schedule, despite headwinds in the macro-environment.
• Since inception, Isomer Capital has invested in more than 70 early-stage venture capital (VC) firms across Europe, gaining exposure to 29 unicorns to date, including the likes of UiPath in Romania, Tractable, Deliveroo, Oyster in the UK, ManoMano, Sorare in France, Wefox in Germany, and Dune Analytics in Norway.
• Isomer’s proven hybrid fund of funds strategy is one of the best ways for institutional investors to access European technology venture capital’s high potential by supporting European entrepreneurs creating the technology products of tomorrow. As a testament to this, IC II saw its net asset value (NAV) continue to increase in Q4 2022 against macro headwinds, maintaining its ranking in the top 5% of its kind globally.
• Isomer Capital has attracted investment from British Business Investments, the European Commission, and a range of endowments, pensions, corporates, and family offices from across Europe, Asia, and the United States.
