Euro VC Fund News - Eden Ventures and Neuhaus With Oman Fund
We know you need to know where VCs are investing, but it is also useful to keep up with who has new money to invest and what the investor types are up to.
UK early stage venture capital fund Eden Ventures announced that it had closed its new (and first) at £75M, which was above its target. It took them a good two years to get there after announcing an initial first closing.
Although it is a first-time fund, the team has been investing as business angels together for years. Eden's most recent claim to the top tier is its return on selling Cramer Systems to Amdocs.
We've got some of its portfolio firms like Truphone, VoiceVault, and Apertio in our news archives, but we also note some more recent Web 2ish investments like online user reviews site Revoo; Volutio, the company behind IKordo, which it says is a personal organizer, and online storage startup, Mobyko; and Exabre which recently launched The Filter, a music playlist site that exploits its recommendation tech.
Hamburg-based Neuhaus Partners is named to manage a €100M venture capital fund that will invest in Oman-based companies, reports the Times of Oman, and several other local press sources.
