据 Sifted 报道，欧洲知名风险投资机构 Index Ventures 于近日宣布完成 20 亿美元新一轮募资，旗下可投资资产总规模由此增至 35 亿美元。本轮募资由三部分构成：4 亿美元种子基金、9 亿美元早期风险基金，以及向现有成长期基金追加的 7 亿美元（该基金规模由 15 亿美元扩大至 22 亿美元）。 Index Ventures 表示，新资金将持续支持创始人"从首轮融资到上市乃至更远"，覆盖欧洲、以色列及美国市场。此次募资背景下，AI 是其核心押注方向，该机构已相继投资 Mistral、Cohere 及前 DeepMind 研究员 David Silver 创立的 Ineffable Intelligence。此前，Index 投资组合中的 Wiz 以320 亿美元被谷歌收购、Figma 完成 IPO、Revolut 完成二级市场股份出售（估值达 1150 亿美元），均为本轮募资提供了有力背书。
AI collaboration assistant Viktor has announced the completion of a $75 million funding round, led by Accel, with participation from Bek Ventures, Kaya VC, Tenacity Capital, and executives from companies such as Slack, Google DeepMind, and Figma. The company is currently building "AI virtual colleagues" embedded into Slack and Microsoft Teams. Unlike traditional personal AI assistant products, these AI colleagues can execute tasks across systems like Google Drive, Notion, Airtable, and Shopify, generate reports, and build organization-level memory.
