We are excited to announce the final closing of our Digital East Fund II (DEF II) at €200m. Our focus remains the same as our 2014-vintage debut fund, which ranks among the top 5% of global VC funds in our vintage: backing the most ambitious teams hailing from Emerging Europe in Seed and Series A rounds.
DEF II has already made four notable investments:
- FintechOS was named the hottest Fintech company in Europe in 2020 at the Europas Awards.
- Payhawk is building the financial system of tomorrow that combines credit cards, payments, and expenses into one experience.
- Picus Security is a pioneer in Breach and Attack Simulation (BAS), named a Gartner Cool Vendor 2019 in the Cybersecurity category.
- Binalyze is a rising star in the area of advanced digital forensics and incident response (DFIR).
