Frequently Asked Questions

How do I get in front of seed funds in Europe?
The most effective approach is a warm introduction from a founder in the fund's portfolio. If that's not possible, use GRID's VC Matcher to identify which seed funds are actively investing in your sector and stage, then reach out via LinkedIn or email with a concise, data-driven pitch.
What check sizes do European seed funds typically write?
European seed funds typically invest between €250K and €3M per deal. Some pre-seed focused funds write smaller checks (€50K–€500K), while larger seed funds may go up to €5M for competitive rounds.
Which sectors are most active for seed investment in Europe?
SaaS, FinTech, HealthTech, and AI/ML are the most active sectors for seed investing in Europe. Climate tech and defence tech have also seen significant growth in dedicated seed funding since 2023.
