EUVC #227 Marc Penkala, āltitude & Michael Sidgmore, Broadhaven
This episode is a first of its kind, ‘cos we sat down one of the managers we’ve decided to back here at eu.vc for a pitch session with one of our good friends in the LP ecosystem. So in this episode, you’ll hear two voices from each side of the table: that of Marc Penkala founding GP of Altitude, a 70 M€ early stage fund to close the European SME gap, and Michael Sidgmore, Partner and co-founder of Broadhaven Ventures, a US-based global early-stage financial technology investor that invests principal capital into fintech companies, VC funds, and incubates asset management businesses. Broadhaven’s portfolio counts 20 VC funds and 100 early stage companies with notable investments including Carta, Nowports, Republic and Kovi. Michael is also the founder of alternative investments focused podcast Alt Goes Mainstream. Michael is an owner of Angel City FC, the women's soccer team in LA. So with no further ado, let’s get pitching.
