What is Peak Capital?

Peak Capital, established in 2007 and headquartered at Weesperplein 4B, 1018 XA Amsterdam, Netherlands, is a venture capital (VC) firm with 66 million euros in assets under management. Specialized in early-stage, seed, and later-stage investments, Peak Capital typically invests in companies within the telecom, consumer internet, Software-as-a-Service (SaaS), media, and technology sectors. While they operate with a generalist approach with no strict industry focus, there is a strong affinity for SaaS and marketplace/platform businesses in Northwestern Europe.

Their investment strategy revolves around companies that demonstrate some revenue, particularly those ready to scale beyond founder sales, although they also consider pre-revenue or pre-product companies opportunistically. The fund's investment ticket size ranges from a minimum of 250,000 euros to a maximum of 4,200,000 euros, with an investment sweet spot of approximately 2,200,000 euros.

Through their recent fund size of 125 million euros, Peak Capital aims to empower founder-funded venture capital investments. They are active across Europe, with a particular footprint in Amsterdam, Berlin, and Stockholm. As self-described former founders, the team focuses on offering not just capital but also support and guidance derived from personal entrepreneurial experiences.

Their portfolio includes investments in diverse startups that aim to disrupt various industries with innovative solutions, ranging from AI-driven veterinary care to platform engineering labs, sustainable energy ERP systems, mental health platforms, and generative AI for health companies.

Peak Capital's team is a diverse mix of individuals that pride themselves on combining gut instincts with deep data to support their investment decisions.

What they say:
