Partech is a global technology investment firm founded in 1982, managing over €2.5 billion in assets across seed, venture, growth, Africa, and impact strategies. The firm backs "independent thinkers who challenge conventional wisdom" — ambitious founders solving large problems through technology — providing not just capital but operational expertise, global networks, and hands-on support from day one through scale. Its Venture fund focuses on mission-critical software powering the digital transformation of European enterprises and SMBs, targeting Series A/B companies with €1–10M ARR across four themes: Application Software, Deep Tech Software (Data & AI Infrastructure, Cybersecurity, DevOps), B2B & B2B2C Vertical Platforms, and Fintech & Insurtech. Its Seed fund backs entrepreneurial talent from day one across Europe and globally with no sector constraints, while its Africa fund targets tech-enabled businesses addressing large emerging-market opportunities across the continent.
Notable quotes
“We have only scratched the surface of the huge market potential arising from the digital transformation of European enterprises and SMBs. European capabilities in creating mission-critical applications for productivity, digital infrastructure, data protection and cyber security, as well as tools that leverage data and AI, have dramatically improved over the last 10 years.”
“We are continuing to build on the success of our previous venture, with experienced partners that have built a portfolio of leading European companies and we have added some new talent to increase our coverage of the best European deals.”
“My passion is to genuinely support founders in their entrepreneurial journey, and being a seed VC is an incredible opportunity to do so! Especially at Partech, where we hugely benefit from the extensive resources, back-office, network and experience from our multi-stage international firm.”
