If you were a Solo Venture Capitalist — or Solo GP as they have come to be known — during the 2020-2021 boom, you might be in trouble now, especially as valuations from that era have often tanked. However, while the Solo GP model has been around in the US for some years, this model of VC has arrived late enough in Europe for it to become a more viable way forward for many European startups who are finding thin-pickings from multi-partnered VC funds in this bear-ish market.
Taking advantage of this trend, for instance, is Hypernova, a $25 million fund of funds that launched last year aiming at funding Solo GPs in Europe.
