Quadrille Capital raises €500M to invest in European and US tech

Quadrille Capital, which invests in VC and directly invests in tech, has closed a €500 million funding round, which will see it invest in the European and US tech sector.

The Paris and San Francisco-based firm’s funding round runs across various funds. These are direct investments, €285m, while its primary fund has raised €70m, and its secondary fund has raised €150m. It brings Quadrille’s total assets under management to €1.8bn.

Quadrille invests in tech sectors in the EU and the US in areas such as software, AI and healthcare. A quarter of its direct investment fund has already been deployed in firms such as Sanas in AI, Homa in gaming and Wisetack in fintech.

The primary fund invests in VC funds and growth funds, while the €150m raise for the secondary fund, Quadrille says, was more than three times the amount raised in its first vintage.

Jérôme Chevalier, CEO of Quadrille Capital, said: "Over 20 years, Quadrille Capital has built a leading independent investment platform that offers its investors the means to capture all growth opportunities in the tech sector in both Europe and the United States. 

“Our pioneering and cross-functional strategic vision, deployed through our multi-strategy model, gives us a unique positioning in the industry. These fundraisings illustrate the recognition of this model and demonstrate confidence in the expertise of our teams, whose talent and commitment are the foundation of our success."
