Target Global

Since its founding in 2015, Target Global has established itself as a leading European technology investment firm, boasting an impressive portfolio that includes some of the continent's most celebrated transformational tech companies. With over €3 billion in assets under management and offices strategically located in London, Berlin, Tel Aviv, and Abu Dhabi, Target Global has cemented its position as a key player in the tech investment industry. Founded by Shmuel Chafets and Yaron Valler, Target Global was born out of a vision to drive innovation and support entrepreneurs in building groundbreaking companies. Both founders brought a wealth of experience from their time leading the investment arm of Hasso Plattner Ventures, where they were instrumental in backing early EU tech unicorns. A Dynamic Team Target Global owes its success to its diverse team members who bring a wide range of perspectives and experiences. This diversity has enabled the firm to identify and seize opportunities that others may overlook, contributing to the emergence of billion-euro "unicorns" from Germany's burgeoning tech economy.
