#84 The memo: Startup Wise Guys, Cristobal Alonso

What this episode covers

Welcome to yet another Memo-episode where we dive deep on one of the funds that we’re raising an EUVC community syndicate for - in other words; one of the funds that you can join us in backing, with minimum tickets at just 1k€. For this, we’re talking to Cristobal Alonso from Startup Wise Guys. You’ve met him before, in episode 49, so you know he’s quite a personality and that it’s an incredible mission they’re on with Startup Wise Guys. Today, we’re zoning in on the fund we’re investing in; Challenger Fund II, a 20 M€ fund to back and double down on the amazing startups coming out of the Europe-wide Startup Wise Guys accelerator program.
