Serena

Founded in 2008, Serena invests in bold ventures and provides them with an unrivaled level of expertise and operational support. In just 10 years, the firm has contributed to the emergence of many success stories and has 40 handpicked startups in its portfolio such as Dataiku, Lifen & Malt.

We handpick on average 4 to 5 teams per year and focus on helping them reach their maximum potential. We are not looking for early exits. We back entrepreneurs willing to build continental or worldwide category leaders from Europe. We prefer to lead or co-lead rounds. Our portfolio includes companies like Dataiku (Leader in Enterprise AI that reached unicorn status), Malt (connects companies with the best freelancers) & Lifen (helps hospitals better share medical data with doctors and patients).
