Background EQT Ventures is a multi-stage VC fund with commitments of just over €566 million. Founded in Stockholm in May 2016, EQT Ventures now has teams based in London, Berlin, Amsterdam, San Francisco and Luxembourg. [1] [2] The fund is modelled after the kind of VC the team would have liked to have had on their own startup journeys, providing support and advice throughout different stages of growth rather than just capital. [3] EQT Ventures is fuelled by a team of founders and operators from success stories such as Booking.com [4], King [5], Spotify [6] [7], Huddle [8], Lithium and Hotels.com. [9] The fund’s partners and operating partners aim to equip the next generation of entrepreneurs with capital [10] and operational support [11] across product, marketing and communications, engineering, analytics, UX, international expansion, sales, partnerships and finance. Rather than focusing on specific industries or sectors, EQT Ventures invests in bold and ambitious founding teams in Europe and the US [12] [13]. EQT Ventures partners early with ambitious European founders (typically Series A and B) and provides support and capital for US founders (typically Series B and C) keen to scale into Europe. [14] Motherbrain Motherbrain is EQT Ventures’ proprietary, in-house developed artificial intelligence system [15]. Born inside the EQT Ventures team and then spun out to its own dedicated team in 2017, Motherbrain is managed as a start-up inside EQT. [16] With Motherbrain, EQT Ventures deploys a categorical, data-driven approach across the investment process [17]. Motherbrain has discovered five of EQT Ventures’ investments so far - AnyDesk [18], Peakon [19], WarDucks [20], Handshake [21] and Standard Cognition [22]. Notable exits EQT Ventures had its first exit just 2.5 years after the fund’s launch when it sold its stake in mobile games company Small Giant Games to leading social games developer Zynga in a deal valued at $700m [23]. Investments Notable investments have included Small Giant Games [24], Darkstore [25], Standard Cognition [26], Cytora [27], dott [28], Peakon [29], Beamery [30], Varjo [31], Natural Cycles [32], Wolt [33], Handshake [34], Einride [35], AnyDesk [36], (plus the ones there already, but note that Small Giant Games and Service Partner One have had exits) References
