A Skype blood into Index Ventures
-
-
Index Ventures, the Europe-based venture capital firm that backed Skype at its early days and which got rich after the eBay $2.6 million buyout, announced the closing of its latest and fourth fund, the “Index Ventures IV”, capped at €350 million (around $460 million). The firm’s total capital under management raised to more than €1 billion (about $1.2 billion).
New partners have come to the firm. Among them, Saul Klein, the former Skype global marketing vice president, and one of the top executives who left the boat, disappointed by the eBay management.
For the Index Ventures’ tactic, it’ll remain the same, that is partnering highly capable start-up in the information technology, life science and green tech sectors.
