Runa Capital considers launching new $135 million fund

Runa Capital, a venture investment firm operating globally from its offices in Moscow, London and Palo Alto, considers launching a third fund, potentially raising some $135 million.

The new fund would operate during four years, Runa Capital Managing Partner Dmitry Chikhachev told us.

Launched in 2011, Runa Capital’s first fund targeted essentially Russian startups; but the firm quickly switched to a global strategy.

Runa launched its second fund in 2014, ultimately raising $135 million. So far, Runa funds invested in over 60 companies from 12 different countries.
