Lazy AI is coming. 🌒
At @WebSummit, great insights from our panel “Scale v Profit” featuring three top #VCs: 🎤 @pjparson, Partner, @northzoneVC 🎤 @saranormous, Founder, @w_conviction 🎤 @fdestin, Founder, @stride_vc
Stoked to co-lead @knowunity's Series A with @redalpine alongside existing investors @ProjectAcom and a squad of world class (and World Cup winning) angels. tech.eu/2022/05/24/kno…
Entreprise messaging stalwart @sednanetwork is now one of our biggest positions after a $34M Series B led by @insightpartners as the company expands beyond shipping & logistics (Norden), commodities (Glencore) into new areas like banking (Starling). Watch this space.
Super excited to see this news come out today. @cleo_sham is a world-class operator and will be a phenomenal addition to the @stride_vc team, showing the world her investing skills. Bravo @fdestin some very exciting times ahead and as you say... Onwards... 😉

Investment scorecard 2021 @stride_vc : - c. 300 jobs created ex Cazoo 🚀 - 9 new investments - 7 reinvestments - 8 uprounds, no downrounds, no shutdowns - 1.4X uplift on the fund Not a bad second year @HarryStebbings. Onward!
I first met @wfdobie for a 45 minute intro meeting. 3 hours later we were jamming on product. Bill is 1 of Europe’s great product minds and super excited to announce @stride_vc co-led @sednanetwork Series A alongside @chalfs. Watch this space... 🚀 sifted.eu/articles/sedna…
.@CazooUK scorecard less than one year after launch: - 10K cars sold - £150M in year 1 revenues - 800 team members - 4.7 stars on Trustpilot Over £85M invested by @stride_vc and our LPs since we led the Nov-18 seed round with @DMGTplc
1/ Let me distill the Stride investment strategy in fifteen tweets. Yes, fifteen 😘.
Best thing about starting @stride_vc has been quality of investment discussions with @HarryStebbings. We push back on each other with a smile, we go deep, we explore issues, we enhance each other. We simply come to better decisions together without drama. It feels good.
Little known @HarryStebbings fact is he spends 12 hours recording podcasts on a Friday. Even littler known fact is that he’s such a class act that he’ll happily spend 2 hours before that helping you interview exec candidates. True gentleman and great investor.
First unicorn a little earlier than planned 🧐 Now on to Moolah in Da Coolah. sifted.eu/articles/cazoo…
As my 23rd year comes to a close, time to reflect on the year that has been: 💵 Final close @stride_vc Fund I with best buddy @fdestin. 😇 9 angel investments. 🏦 First LP investment, now 4 made. 💼 3 board seats gained. 🎙 20VC crossed 80M downloads. Onwards... 🚀
Apply for small group sessions. Focused on founders from underprivileged backgrounds, underrepresented communities or who may have difficulty getting access to venture in any way. My tiny contribution to #BlackOutTuesday. airtable.com/shrzOLxoysS92z…
Opencore met the #JamStack future of web infrastructure and they had a headless CMS baby called @strapijs 👾 Growing up -- announcing a $10M round led by @arihelgason @IndexVentures 🚀 Take that, COVID! medium.com/@fdestin/strap…
1/ .@eriktorenberg invited me to the @villageglobal podcast which gave me a chance to reflect about the ideas on which we built our fund. Stride.VC started on simple principles: small batch investing, keep the team and the fund small and act as one.

Just posted: my story on @sednanetwork’s new $34M funding round, led by @insightpartners. Sedna founder @wfdobie’s view is that email isn’t built for complex distributed industries like logistics, but it’s also impossible to dislodge. joc.com/technology/inv… @JOC_Updates
Super excited to see this news come out today. @cleo_sham is a world-class operator and will be a phenomenal addition to the @stride_vc team, showing the world her investing skills. Bravo @fdestin some very exciting times ahead and as you say... Onwards... 😉
1/ Breaking news. I’m absolutely thrilled to partner with @cleo_sham to build @stride_vc going forward. We’re just getting started and incredibly excited about what’s to come.
@fdestin @cleo_sham @stride_vc Great to see such an accomplished operator join the team! Scaling Uber China and post-Didi sounds like such an incredible experience. Reminded me about your thread the other week about operator VCs and the lack of them in Europe.

Very few people are aware of the impact and role that @shak has played in my journey to today. Simply put, from personal to professional he has always been there for me. This thread says it all on Shak but Happy Birthday my friend, some very exciting times ahead. 👏
Today is my Birthday 🎈 I fucking hate celebrating my birthday, and today I am finally ready to share why ? Thread 👇👇👇
What a time to release an episode. Today @Klarna announced $1Bn raise at a $31Bn valuation making them Europe’s most valuable private tech company. Listen to @Klarnaseb on management style to the power of self-doubt. Hint: Everyone has it. thetwentyminutevc.com/sebastian-siem…
🚨 20VC Episode Tomorrow 🚨 When I was growing up and still today @Sonos was always on in my house. So for one of few episodes where I directly reached out to a guest, cannot wait for this to drop tomorrow with @Patrick_Spence. Stay tuned... 💥
So very excited to say I have @vladtenev @RobinhoodApp on @twentyminutevc tomorrow. Writing the schedule for the show as we speak, what questions would you most like me to ask? Twitter, work your magic...😉
