In order to raise $1 billion for his new venture fund, Cedar Investment Management, John Curtius, a former partner at the investment company Tiger Global Management, is in discussions with institutional investors.
According to a Reuters story, the fund would concentrate on making investments in early-stage enterprise software companies in the US and Europe. After working at Elliott Management, where he managed enterprise software investment, John joined Tiger Global in 2017. In October of this year, he quit Tiger Global. John will continue working for the investment company through June 2023, according to TechCrunch.
At Tiger Global, he oversaw more than 250 venture investments, including the backing of Indian businesses CleverTap, Gupshup, and Innovaccer. SentinelOne, a provider of security software, and unicorns like Databricks, a provider of data infrastructure, and Snyk, a provider of cybersecurity, are just a few of his significant deals. He was also acknowledged earlier this year on Fortune’s list of the “40 under 40” powerful figures impacting business.
