LeadBlock Partners, a venture capital firm based in London and Paris, completed the first close of its new fund, which has a target value of $150 million (€150 million).

Founded only two years ago by former Goldman Sachs employees David Chreng-Messembourg, Baptiste Cota, and Jean-Marc Puel, this is the firm’s second fund, which it has so far raised capital in the tens of millions. With its first, it made bets on startups such as Yuga Labs, Bitpanda, and BlockFi.

The new fund, which will invest in both tokens and equity, is backed by family offices, hedge fund managers, and financial institutions. As well as a who’s who of crypto market makers.

Along with the fund, the firm has created a committee that looks to connect different corners of the industry. Members include Animoca Brands’ chief operating officer Arnold Concepcion, professor of economics and blockchain academic chair at Ecole Polytechnique Paris Julien Prat, and Horizen Labs founder Liat Aaronson, who was behind Yuga Lab’s ApeCoin launch.

LeadBlock is also looking to conduct office hours for venture firms curious about crypto but yet to fully take the plunge, such as Earlybird, Hedosophia, Alven, and Cathay Capital, and concentrating particularly on firms with French connections. LeadBlock recently opened an office in Paris to make a strong push in the French ecosystem.
