Black Swan Equity Partners Llp

Black Swan is an early-growth venture capital fund. We invest in technology businesses driven by smart entrepreneurial teams, with disruptive ideas for extreme impact solutions. The mission at Black Swan is to create as many high return investments as possible by focusing on the outlier phenomena known as Black Swans. We aim to invest in innovative forward thinking people, that are working to provide solutions to urgent global challenges. We look to collaborate with teams that are in control of their own future, entrepreneurs that are empowered by our team of experienced professionals, with an end goal of catalyzing extraordinary results for everyone involved. Typically, we will begin to provide financial and mentoring support around the time an operable version of the solution has been produced. Potential Black Swans are very hard to identify, because of the human bias of traditional thinking. Our investment philosophy is rooted in Black Swan Theory (Taleb, 2007) and our screening strategy rests on our development of a unique Black Swan Rating System. Our Black Swan Rating System describes the objective dynamics of potential Black Swans – the mega game-changers of IT and technology – and guides our investment selection. We invest across the US and Europe. A particular focus area is emerging talent in the Nordic region – Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Iceland and Finland – countries which have a strong tradition of innovation, and have produced more than 30% of European technology unicorns (start-ups valued at $1 billion) since the year 2000.
