  • StyleTread

    Participated · Series C · Mar 2012

    StyleTread is an Australian online shoe store modeled on Zappos principles. The company was founded in late 2010 by Mark Rowland and Bjorn Behrendt using incubation capital from Lakestar. Based in Melbourne, it competes with Samwer-backed Zappos clone Zalando. StyleTread secured a Series C financing of AUD$12 million led by Starfish Ventures, with participation from Lakestar, Nine Entertainment Co., and Adinvest. Nine Entertainment recently invested $4 million, and Starfish's investment will give it a significant stake. The increased investment by Nine Entertainment means StyleTread is now majority owned by Australian shareholders. Starfish Ventures, which led the round, manages over $400 million.

  • DailyDeal

    Led · Equity · Apr 2010

    Daily Deal operates a Groupon-style daily deals service in Germany, selling time-limited local offers to consumers. The company is Berlin-based and led by founder and CEO Fabian Heilemann. Daily Deal positions itself to expand into the next stage of development following a fresh injection of capital and says the new funding makes it a long-term, serious player in Germany. The business competes directly with the Samwer brothers’ City Deal, and the article frames the market as a two-horse race by funding alone. No operating metrics were disclosed in the article.
