Fund III
Providing growth funding to a leading European technology media outlet.
Sifted is a high-quality, new-media platform, focused on in-depth reporting, news and analysis on European startups.
Business Situation
Sifted formally launched in January 2019 to write about the European startup world. The business has already built a strong and loyal readership across the region and proved that there was a gap in the market for high quality, FT-calibre journalism.
The growth trajectory of the business is impressive and the steps Sifted want to take to expand on its offering and staff is exactly why we are excited to embark on this journey.
The Journey
There is a shared vision to expand the Sifted readership across the region, we want to assist in deepening relationships with readers by launching more podcasts, data-rich reports and member events.
We are looking forward to working closely with the Sifted management team to help the business successfully scale-up.
