HerbertCheck size: €500K-€1M initial investments, as published by Herbert.
Ben Simon invests or supports investments through Herbert's published strategy: Find exceptional European founder teams early, invest with conviction alongside other VCs and focus entirely on helping each initial investment reach its next stage.
Outlier founder teams with relentless drive, operational excellence and a clear view of how the future will differ from today.
Herbert explicitly backs founder teams rather than solo founders and does not pursue follow-on investing; teams lacking exceptional execution or European roots are less aligned.
Show why this team is an outlier, the category it can create, evidence of operational excellence, the co-investor plan and the milestones to the next institutional round.
