"European start-ups often lack the quality of support from backers that our US counterparts enjoy. Add, almost uniquely, has understood this and is playing a key part in building up the entrepreneurial base in Europe."

Welcome to Add Partners, a leading venture capital firm investing in Europe’s most promising and ambitious IT and Communications businesses.

Our investing style is unique. Unlike most VCs operating in Europe today, Add Partners brings together a highly productive Silicon Valley-style emphasis on creating the maximum value in its investments and an unmatched, practical knowledge of the challenges and opportunities Europe’s technology businesses face in realising their global potential.

Through our initial fund of €175m, raised amongst some 25 institutional investors from across Europe, the US and Asia, we have already invested in a select group of companies with outstanding international growth potential.

While the majority of our investments are with early stage companies, we also aim to selectively support more developed private companies where our financial and strategic involvement can make a critical difference to a fast growing business.

Headquartered in London, our expert team of investment professionals draws on a wide range of operational experience, deep local knowledge and global perspective to help maximise the performance and value of young companies. Our commitment to our partner companies extends to working actively with CEOs and senior managers, and to leveraging the resources of a global network of industry and professional contacts to steer a course for success.
