Creative Capital Ventures has announced the launch of a new €18 million fund aimed at supporting early-stage founders. This initiative reflects the growing interest in venture capital for startups, particularly in Europe, where emerging entrepreneurs are increasingly seeking funding to scale their businesses. The fund's launch comes amid discussions in the startup community about the strategies for identifying successful ventures, as highlighted in recent podcasts featuring notable figures like Garry Tan, who shared insights on the early days of Y Combinator and his personal journey in the tech industry. The conversations emphasize the significance of mentorship and investment in fostering innovation among new founders.
