Overview

Newfund is an Early-Stage Cross-Border People-Driven Entrepreneurial VC firm.

Newfund has developed a strong culture centered around entrepreneurship and encourages initiatives to support the ambitions and the development of its portfolio companies. Newfund has $300 million in AUM subscribed mostly by entrepreneurs and family offices. Newfund's investment strategy is people-driven, focused on the constant search of entrepreneurs obsessed to realize their vision. They seek to understand entrepreneurs as individuals, appreciate their originality and play to their strengths.

They write first checks between $250k and $2M and do follow-ons (we even start at $100k in the Nouvelle Aquitaine region with our NAEH fund). Beyond money, they provide access to their operating team and a strong cross-border ecosystem to help founders find product-market fit and accelerate their growth. They want founders with skin in the game. Similarly, the Newfund team is a large LP in each fund, our interests are aligned, there is no agency.

Newfund has raised a total of $319.6M across 4 funds, their latest being Newfund2. This fund was announced on Sep 1, 2016 and raised a total of €130M.
