Daphni

Daphni is a venture capital firm that focuses on funding innovation. Recently, Daphni's Time4 fund raised 50 million euros. This fund is specifically targeted towards financing innovation originating from entrepreneurs from diverse backgrounds and from research laboratories. Pierre-Eric Leibovici, co-founder and managing partner of Daphni, discussed this fundraising effort on the 'French Tech' segment of 'Good Morning Business'. The fund's focus on diversity highlights an effort to address the underrepresentation of diverse entrepreneurs in venture capital funding, as only a small percentage of venture capital currently goes to them. This initiative aims to unlock the untapped potential within this demographic and support innovative projects stemming from both diverse entrepreneurs and research institutions.
