  • Skype Cofounders Aim to Raise $266M Venture Fund
    Connie Loizos- 7 May 2009

    Atomico Ventures is ready for blast-off, according to a new regulatory filing. The early-stage venture capital fund spearheaded by Skype cofounders Niklas Zennström and Janus Friis is looking to raise the strangely precise amount of $266 million, with the help of San Francisco placement agent Probitas Partners. The fund -- incorporated in the tax-neutral jurisdiction of Grand Cayman island -- has yet to secure any commitments, according to the filing. The team is apparently pretty confident about how quickly it will do so, though. The filing states that the offering to LPs, who are being asked for a minimum investment of $13.3 million, will be available for no longer than one year.
