42CAP

42CAP invests in seed-stage, technology- and data-driven B2B software companies across Europe with global ambitions, currently deploying its fourth fund generation. Its team describes itself as entrepreneurs turned investors, having previously built software companies including eCircle, a marketing technology company later acquired by Teradata in 2012, after which team members went on to lead Teradata's global Marketing Cloud business unit. One team member studied business engineering in Karlsruhe and in Boston, while another holds a further degree in aerospace and astronautics from the Technical University of Munich along with an MBA from Berkeley. A third team member previously founded a startup and worked in the insurance and healthcare industry, having earlier trained in consulting with a strong focus on financial services.
