Roundtable - Launch your EU investment fund in days, not months

Setting up a fund in Europe used to take €200k+ (legal/tax included) and months of waiting. We built Roundtable to change that. With our EUVECA license, emerging fund managers can launch a compliant EU fund in days, not months. Market to professional and non-professional investors across Europe, onboard LPs digitally, manage capital calls and distributions, all from one platform. US LPs welcome too.

Thank you @Roundtable for your amazing contribution to private investments, making it easier to invest will make it more accessible, which in turn will move cash away from savings accounts and into private markets, fostering innovation along the way!

Thank you Gregory !!

Julien Fissette

Ohh great idea, this is going to scrap the hustle of raising capital from founders, as a founder, I think this is gonna help me a lot . I’m so excited to try it. Does it work for only the EU Market VCs and Angels?

Julien Fissette

@atwijukire_ariho_seth our setup complies with EU regulation, but it is possible for EU funds to raise from foreign investors as well.
However we cannot support just about any fund in any market, yet ;)

Congrats on the launch! Europe has incredible startups and scaleups, so anything that makes it easier for founders to raise funds and scale across the continent (and the world) is amazing!

Thanks for your support @e_ernoult !!!

Julien Fissette

@e_ernoult That's the goal! Thanks for your support :)

We love papermark as well!

What's the reason behind the name? Love the fact that it focuses on the EU sector. Congrats on the launch@julien_fissette!

Julien Fissette

@neilverma
The reason behind the name Roundtable is that, like probably a lot of startup founders, we tried dozens of different names which either didn't sound great but were available, or sounded great but were already taken until we landed on this one!

@Roundtable Huge congrats on the launch!

Having a real AIFM and EUVECA license in-house and turning that whole complicated process into simple software is such a inspirational move!

Wish Korea had an equivalent… the barriers for new funds are almost the same here.

@paxhumana 
I don't know Korea well, but thanks for sharing!
I'm sure that an actor will emerge if the pain is large enough

Dmitry Zakharov
Wow, interesting product. How did you manage to get through all the European bureaucracy?
Evan Testa
By tackling it piece by piece and automating it !!
Etienne Boutan

First fund customer here! European regulations are impossible to navigate and Roundtable is the only fund admin to make it bearable :) The team is reactive at all times.

Alexandr Kerya

The legal/compliance stack for fund launches in Europe has been a blocker for years. Nice to see someone actually building around it rather than just consulting on it. How are you handling reporting requirements for cross-border distributions?

Julien Fissette

@alex_kerya Great question! It will depend: some we handle ourselves, and some, such as US K-1s, we outsource to specialized thrid parties.

Alexandr Kerya

@julien_fissette Makes sense - K-1s for US LPs are a whole separate beast. Is the third-party layer visible to the GP or does it run behind the scenes?

Julien Fissette

@alex_kerya Yes, it's fully visible to the GPs (and they have access to the fund's annual account where they can see all of the fund's expense)
