VC Fund Dossiers

This is the Rocket Internet alumni club rebranded for the deep tech era. The founding team - Kudlich from Rocket Internet/GFC, Ensthaler from GFC, and Leibert from Mesosphere - brings serious operational DNA and a track record of scaling tech companies. They've raised $1.3B across two funds since 2020, with Fund II closing at $400M. The good: they actually understand enterprise software and have skin in the game as former founders. They're betting big on MLOps and open source commercialization with investments in QuestDB, Iterative.ai, and ActivLoop. The watch-out: they have 3 unicorns (Razor Group, ClickUp, PandaDoc) but also some portfolio company exits that suggest they're not afraid to cut losses. They move fast and have strong conviction, but expect them to be hands-on - these aren't passive check-writers.
