DTCP Project Liberty. Why this matters. I was born and raised in Austrian town of Dornbirn in the 70s and 80s at peak cold war. I live and work in Austrian capital Vienna since year 2000. My dad visited Mukachevo, Ukraine many times for work in the 2010s. Dornbirn is as far from Vienna as Vienna is from Mukachevo in Ukraine. See Map. Ukraine, a country under attack, a war zone. With the USA rethinking their military alliance with Europe, we simply need to up our game. Significantly. For far too long Europe has been freeriding on USA's peace-keeping. Not only have we spent all of the peace dividend. We have over-run it and turned it into peace debt. Now we have to make up for this. And we need action, not lip service. This is why Project Liberty of DTCP is so, so, so important. Driven by my good friend Thomas Preuss, one of Europe's most successful growth VCs (recent successes include SAP LeanIX, NiCE Cognigy, SAP Signavio, Pipedrive and investments in Quantum Systems, Arctic Wolf, Zenity, Anomali, OX Security, Axonius) Project Liberty is in the best hands imaginable. One thing about Project Liberty stands out: 300m (60% of target 500m) anchored by two(!) private(!!) German(!!!) LPs. 😲 That's probably the two biggest single checks of private European LPs I have ever heard of. Respect, Thomas!! 💪🏻 LPs are investing when presented meaningful ideas. You know I have a big passion for capital formation and LP relationships for capital is the only bottle-neck we face in Europe. And this fact about Project Liberty makes me very confident for Project Liberty in particular and for the European VC market as a whole. I mean: Compare this to NATO Innovation Fund (NIF) where 24(!) countries(!!) mobilised (just?) 1bn(!!!). So German LPs are outspending average NATO member states by 4:1. Let this sink in. Peace.
