LocalGlobe

LocalGlobe is an early-stage startup investor that invests primarily in technology businesses headquartered in London and the UK. We have made more than 175 pre-seed and seed investments since 1999, and have seen the full journey from inception to seed to exit, across multiple economic cycles. Our team have been founders, operators, board members and investors in some of the most important European startup success stories. We remain active investors, averaging 10-20 investments per year, and are comfortable investing across multiple sectors including creative, education, energy, fashion, finance, food, health, insurance, property, travel and transport. We invest in startups selling to consumers, small businesses and enterprises. We are lean, data-driven and move fast in decision making. We offer highly structured, collaborative support to our investee companies, and have an excellent track record in getting our startups to a Series A raising (almost 90% vs less than 40% EU average). Although we focus our efforts on the UK, we will invest in other European geographies, as well as Africa, in partnership with other leading funds.
