Startup Europe — The Sifted Podcast

Index Ventures partner Martin Mignot on where Revolut should list

Sifted

Name a big European tech company, and there’s a high chance Martin Mignot, partner at Index Ventures, invested in it. 

Martin’s portfolio includes some of the continent’s big winners, like car sharing platform BlaBlaCar, digital bank Revolut, digital health provider Kry, HR platform Personio and delivery company Deliveroo — and some of its big failures, including energy supplier Bulb which went bust in 2022. 

On this month's episode of Startup Europe — the Sifted Podcast, we dig into what Martin has learnt from his time helping some of Europe's startup success stories scale, and some of the less fortunate company stories.

We hear about what he believes makes a great founder, improving stock options at European startups and why Revolut would probably IPO in the US.
