Momenta Recognized as Top 10 VC in PitchBook Global Fund Rankings 

 

Momenta, the leading Industrial Impact® venture capital firm, is honored to be the only European-headquartered VC firm to secure a top 10 spot in PitchBook’s 2023 Global Manager Performance Score League Tables  (published July 30th, 2024). 

 

 

 

Out of 365 VC fund families, Momenta's investment performance has earned the firm eighth place in the rankings, placing it in the top decile of VC family funds globally. PitchBook's innovative data-driven methodology to identify top-performing private capital fund strategies goes beyond traditional benchmarks, such as IRR quartiles, for a more comprehensive measure of relative performance.

 

"This recognition reinforces Momenta's position as the Industrial Impact® venture capital firm, accelerating industrial innovators across energy, manufacturing, smart spaces, and the supply chain," said Ken Forster, Founding Partner of Momenta. "Since our founding, we've focused solely on Industrial Impact, coupling patient capital with sustained co-creation opportunities for our portfolio companies, ultimately leading to successful exits."

 

"We are Venture Industrialists at Momenta, partnering with the world's leading entrepreneurs who leverage machine intelligence and industrial data to revolutionize their industries while creating a more sustainable and prosperous world," says Michael Dolbec, Managing Partner at Momenta.

 

Over the past decade, Momenta has raised four Digital Industry Funds, supporting 58 portfolio companies across 120 investments, including 15 exits. Notable portfolio companies include Edge Impulse, EquipmentShare, Fleet.Space, HighByte, Litmus, Plat.one, Smartex.ai, ThingWorx and Xage.

 

Focusing on early growth stage (Seed to Series B), Momenta traditionally leads investment across Europe and North America, with opportunistic investments elsewhere globally.
