Our value

Dawn is one of the few European VCs with deep expertise in SaaS, and their
contribution to us has been invaluable.

Pieterjan Bouten, Co-founder & CEO, Showpad
Dawn is an invaluable partner to have on side. The firm has brought huge value
and insights to our business, and the team is deeply invested in our success at
all levels. Dawn has invested in Quantexa through both its flagship and
opportunities funds, participating in every follow-on round and helping us scale
to reach our goals.

Vishal Marria, CEO and Founder, Quantexa
Our Series B was very oversubscribed, but we were drawn to Dawn owing to their
team and experience. Dawn were great to work with during the fundraise, focused
on points that would help them build conviction and with second to none
communication. In a short timeframe they've turned into a trusted and valuable
partner, connecting us into their excellent network.

Dmitry Tokarev, Founder & CEO, Copper
The Dawn team brings ambition, experience and a human touch. We are not making
decisions and reporting to them; we make decisions side by side and this is due
to the approach they have – it works. They've brought us access to a network we
did not have before and it has opened a priceless channel for growth and
partnerships.

Tim Ward, Co-founder & CEO, CluedIn
Since their first investment, Dawn has been a very supportive and strategic
partner. They have participated in our funding rounds through both their
flagship and opportunities funds, ensuring they have remained deeply invested in
our success. As a European investor, they are somewhat unique in being able to
support their companies from Series A to exit.

Florian Douetteau, Founder & CEO, Dataiku
Dawn has provided an unmatched level of challenge and support to Eigen. We have
a superb working relationship with their team and they have had a huge impact on
our journey. The firm is unique in the breadth of perspectives it brings to the
table to support its management teams to scale effectively and deliver
significant outcomes.

Lewis Liu, Founder & CEO, Eigen Technologies
Working with the team at Dawn helps us get to the heart of issues very quickly.

Magnus Nilsson, Co-Founder & Executive Chairman, iZettle
Dawn was our first–and subsequently a very important–institutional investor.
They supported us through a period of transformational growth. During that time,
Mimecast went from being a less than $10m revenue company to a global leader in
the cybersecurity space with a successful IPO and great track record as a public
company.

Peter Bauer, Founder & CEO, Mimecast
We have been working with Dawn since they led our investment round in March
2020, and they have helped us to carefully navigate the challenges of scaling a
fintech SaaS business. The perspective they offer, and their wealth of knowledge
in the space, have proven extremely valuable for all of us at OpenGamma – we’re
lucky to have them on-board.

Peter Rippon, Co-founder & CEO, OpenGamma
Dawn is one of the few European VCs with deep expertise in SaaS, and their
contribution to us has been invaluable.
