Pride Capital Partners has held a €75 million first close for Pride Capital Partners Fund III, the latest vintage in its specialist strategy backing later-stage technology companies. The vehicle is targeting €150 million, with a €200 million hard cap, and already counts the European Investment Fund and other repeat backers among its LP base. Fund III will extend Pride’s debt-led, minority-equity approach to B2B software and managed ICT services businesses across Northwestern Europe—principally the Benelux, DACH and Nordic regions. By combining mezzanine loans with selective equity, the firm offers founder-friendly capital that funds organic expansion, buy-and-build programmes and management buy-outs without ceding control. Building on two top-quartile predecessors, PCP Fund III will write tickets of roughly €2–20 million, focusing on companies with scalable recurring revenue (> €3 million) and positive EBITDA. Early deployments include Belgium’s Tyneso and Denmark’s CCIT, illustrating a healthy pipeline as the fund marches toward a final close later this year.

The Fund is a new dedicated seed‑stage vehicle created by Sequoia Capital to partner with extraordinary founders at the very beginning of their journey. Backed by a $200 million seed‑pool and launching alongside a $750 million Series A vehicle, the fund underscores Sequoia’s pivot to earlier stage investments amid rapidly escalating valuations driven by AI. The firm emphasises backing teams before product‑market fit has been fully proven, helping them build meaningful businesses from day one through hands‑on support, governance, and access to its network of talent, customers and follow‑on capital. With its legacy of early bets in Airbnb, Google, NVIDIA and Stripe, Sequoia views this fund as a means to secure significant ownership and lasting influence in the next generation of category‑defining companies. The geographic scope spans the US and Europe, targeting foundational technology companies across AI, infrastructure, security, e‑commerce and enterprise software.

Touring Capital Fund I is a first institutional commitment to support the next generation of AI-powered software companies at the early-growth stage. With total capital of $330 million, the fund seeks to lead checks into B2B SaaS enterprises that have established product–market fit and are ready to scale. It bets on founders who leverage AI to improve real workflows, emphasize measurable ROI, and build defensible data moats. The team draws heavily on prior operating and venture experience (SoftBank Vision Fund II, M12, Qualcomm Ventures) to act as hands-on partners, combining deep networks with domain insight. The investment approach is conviction‑driven: fewer but concentrated bets, strong alignment with founders, and selective follow-on support. To date, the portfolio includes ~12 companies, with multiple up‑rounds and at least one exit (SafeBase acquired by Drata) as early validation of the thesis. The fund intends to back 18‑20 companies overall, mostly in the U.S. but with attention to Europe, India, and Australia as supplementary geographies. In execution, Touring Capital seeks to differentiate itself by combining AI / algorithmic sourcing tools (e.g. internal screening pipelines) with founder empathy and domain diligence, rather than chasing hype in foundational models.
