💐🏡 How do boutique VCs coexist with larger & long-established VCs? A recent Gründerszene article by Nina Anika Klotz dives into this topic, highlighting how the two entities work hand in hand. Earlybird Partner Dr. Hendrik Brandis explains “There are basically two ways to create value as a VC, the first is to utilize personal networks and expertise, and the second is to use intelligent systems and structures. The former works well for boutique VCs; however, given the naturally limited size of personal networks, this approach is always limited. What firms like Earlybird do is scalable. Both business models have their justification and will always coexist.” ⚡️ Differentiation is healthy in all markets, and the tech ecosystem is no exception! As described by Headline Partner Christian Miele “Micro VCs play a complementary role in a healthy tech ecosystem. The focus and scale of micro VCs do not overlap with those of large funds.” 👉 Read more here: https://bit.ly/3MvWwmG #Fundraising #Founders #Startups

Thanks to Philip Bueters at MT/Sprout for this article announcing the launch of the LUMO Rise Fund. He interviewed Founding Partner Andy Lurling this week ahead of the announcement. Highlights from the article: 🔶 From a €20 million seed fund, Andy Lurling and Sven Bakkes assembled a star portfolio of 23 startups committed to sustainable and inclusive cities, accessible education and innovations in healthcare. 🔶 LUMO Labs has proven its approach works – early entry, intensive coaching and a focus on impact – and is ready to scale up considerably. LUMO Rise Fund provides more capital to invest in 30-35 impact-driven startups in the Netherlands and other European countries. 🔶 Portfolio companies must prepare in advance for their impact vision and a good theory of change: an explanation of how they are going to make an impact. 🔶 LUMO Labs is committed to diversity and inclusion. “We can't help it that we are white middle-aged men ourselves, but our own team is diverse – with Dagmar van Ravenswaay Claasen and Sabine Schoorl MBA 🏳️🌈 as partners of the LUMO Rise Fund, among others.” (Note: LUMO Labs won the Fe+male Tech Heroes Corporate Inclusion Award in November.) 🔶 LUMO Labs invests in teams who become part of the venture building program, always preparing founders for the next funding round in which an investor focused on growth will step in. 🔶 Extensive networks open doors for founders. “We are seen as thought leaders and go to events, sit on juries and, for example, the TNO transfer board. That not only helps to get the deal flow our way, we also know how to find follow-up investors or first partners and pilot customers.” 🔶 “… it is not about LUMO Labs but about the portfolio companies. We hope that it will also increasingly be seen as a quality stamp by investors and partners: this is a LUMO Labs company.” Read the full article 👉 https://lnkd.in/eeikMPQP #lumorisefund #investmentnews #impactstartups #goodthingsarecoming Meron Pim Federico Dagmar Sabine Thomas Jorge Henk Brabantse Ontwikkelings Maatschappij (BOM) Oost NL NV NOM Investeringsfonds Groningen (IFG) Techleap

I appreciate these takes here, as from my POV there is room for both; they each have distinct advantages and the variety keeps things interesting and ideally beneficial to founders.
