About This Fund
Verb Marketplace Fund II is the latest venture capital vehicle launched by Verb Ventures, a London-based investment firm specializing in early-stage marketplaces and B2B platforms. This second fund continues Verb’s mission of identifying and accelerating companies that are reshaping fragmented or opaque industries through technology-enabled platforms. The fund is designed to back late seed and Series A companies demonstrating initial market traction, with a clear path to scalable growth. Verb Ventures positions itself as an active partner, leveraging its deep operational expertise and its founders’ backgrounds in building and scaling marketplaces. The firm actively supports portfolio companies in areas like team building, go-to-market strategies, and fundraising. Verb Marketplace Fund II follows a concentrated investment strategy, aiming to build a portfolio of around 20 companies. The fund is structured to allow high conviction positions—investing up to 25% of the fund in a single opportunity. This reflects Verb’s belief in focused backing of a few transformational companies rather than a spray-and-pray approach common in venture capital. As part of its value-add model, Verb Ventures brings together a strong LP base and an expanding founder community to enhance peer learning, unlock commercial opportunities, and drive capital access. The fund continues to emphasize investments in platform businesses with high gross margins, strong unit economics, and the potential to become category leaders in fragmented markets.
