Steven Bartlett, a London, UK-based entrepreneur, public speaker, and investor, launched a $100M fund.
The Flight Story Fund aims to accelerate the next generation of European Unicorns. The vehicle will be investing in companies in the best position to navigate the next decade and require investment and/or expertise to scale their businesses innovating in rapidly emerging sectors.
The Fund will target individual investments between $1m-$10m in high-growth companies in six emerging categories – blockchain, biotech, health & wellbeing, commerce, technology and space – and must have the potential to become Europe’s next Unicorn.
The Fund will receive marketing and communications support from Flight Story – Bartlett’s marketing consultancy company.
