Really enjoyed shedding some light on how to bring liquidity to impact investing with Helena Wasserman, Anne Germain and Benjamin Joffe today at ChangeNOW #changenow2024. Happy to share the breathtaking view on the Eiffel tower and some of the key topics we discussed: 🔸 More #exits will require a clearer path to M&A and IPOs for both startups and VCs. 🔸 #Secondaries are a very efficient way for institutional investors to access the impact and climate private markets, > by acquiring fund stakes to "crowd" the space with new investors; - by resetting terms, including SFDR article 8 and 9 requirements, through GP Led and continuation vehicle transactions 🔸Impact investing, as it addresses pressing needs with clear market demand, might well provide the visibility required by secondary investors. Thanks again for having us ChangeNOW and looking forward to next year's edition at a fully refurbished Grand Palais! Until then, let's make the most of these amazing three days to make sure our planet remains our one and only plan A. #venturecapital #investing #impact #climate #startups #entrepreneurship

Where does Dedicated fit in the VC ecosystem? 🚀 We’ve been asked about our place in the #venturecapital value chain. Are we similar to business angels? Do we align with traditional VC funds? The truth is, trying to categorize us doesn't fully capture the uniqueness of our approach. As a deal-by-deal VC investment boutique, we pride ourselves on our agility and independence. We make flexible club deals that allow us to invest across any stage of maturity, industry, and geography, without the constraints of time. Our focus? Identifying and investing in the most promising startups and scaleups at the optimal moment and ensuring timely, strategic exits without the pressure of a traditional fund schedule. We operate with the swiftness of an angel investor but with the boldness of a venture fund. We wait for the right opportunities. And when they come, we go all in and open these deals to our network, inviting them to join us in whatever capacity they choose, if they feel like it. We’re passionate about what we do, and we're proud of our achievements. Our partner Benjamin Tillier will be sharing this passion and say more about where we fit, or don't fit 😉, at the next VC Meetup event in Luxembourg next week. Thanks Tülin Tokatli, Arman Anatürk for the invitation, and we look forward to connecting with fellow entrepeneurs and investors.
