Working With Our Partners

Partnership and people are the centre of everything we do. Our dedication to research, analysis, building and investing is put to work for every stakeholder.

Working With
Our GPs

A partner is not just a source of capital.

We back a select group of Europe’s leading VC managers who share our mindset and commitment to building enduring technology companies. Across cycles we show up as a consistent, well-informed partner — bringing perspective, conviction and connectivity across our network.

Our Focus

We invest in early-stage European VC funds that are the first source of professional capital to category-defining companies at the forefront of technology and innovation. Our VC partners have differentiated access, strong conviction, and ambitions to build enduring platforms and outlier returns.

Engaged & Constructive

We bring an entrepreneurial approach to investing, underpinned by institutional rigour. Drawing on extensive experience in European seed investing, we provide a knowledgeable and thoughtful perspective, while supporting GPs in executing their strategy independently and with conviction.

Our objective is long-term alignment by being engaged where we can add value, available when needed, and respectful of manager autonomy.

Active Across The Capital Stack

Our work across primary fund commitments, direct co-investments and secondaries enables us to support managers in multiple ways over the complete fund lifecycle. Sometimes that means strategic guidance or helping navigate a difficult LPAC or governance matter; other times, it means providing capital solutions.

We and our LPs actively co-invest alongside our GPs in their highest-conviction companies, bringing aligned capital and speed of execution. We also provide liquidity solutions — at fund level or within individual portfolio companies — offering flexibility through structured secondary transactions.

Value Beyond Capital

We aim to add value in a variety of ways that are tailored and targeted to each manager. Through our diverse LP base — including institutions, family offices and corporates — we are able to, for example:

  • Facilitate co-investment capital
  • Introduce corporate partners for commercial collaboration
  • Share market insight drawn from our GP and CEO network

Our position at the centre of the European venture ecosystem creates connectivity that benefits both managers and their underlying companies.

Working With
Our LPs

Privileged Access

Long-standing relationships with leading European VC managers give us access to capacity-constrained funds and selective co-investment opportunities. As a consistent, value-add LP ourselves, we translate that access into data, insight and exposure for our own LPs — visibility that is otherwise private and difficult to obtain.

Actionable Insights

With a portfolio spanning hundreds of investments and thousands of venture relationships, we offer real-time insight into market dynamics and sector evolution. We share this perspective with our partners through targeted briefings, thematic work and practical guidance tailored to their objectives.

Customised Solutions

We design investment programmes aligned with each partner’s objectives, considering their risk, return, liquidity, and governance requirements. We offer flexible solutions to help LPs meet their strategic targets, with an approach that combines institutional discipline with flexibility suited to early-stage markets.

WHAT THEY SAY

Our partnership with Isomer Capital includes every vintage since 2016 and has been foundational to our expansion across the European venture ecosystem. Isomer’s comprehensive approach, spanning primary commitments, secondaries and co-investments, serves as a unique lens on innovation across the continent.
