At Roundtable, we’re building the marketplace and financial infrastructure to structure investments in private markets.
We help founders raise their round, syndicates structure themselves, and GPs launch their fund.
We support investments in Venture Capital, Real Estate and Private Equity.
This is the 2nd launch from Roundtable. View more
Roundtable
Launching today
Setting up a fund in Europe used to take €200k+ (legal/tax included) and months of waiting. We built Roundtable to change that.
With our EUVECA license, emerging fund managers can launch a compliant EU fund in days, not months.
Market to professional and non-professional investors across Europe, onboard LPs digitally, manage capital calls and distributions, all from one platform. US LPs welcome too.
Payment Required
Launch Team / Built With
Roundtable
Hey Product Hunt!
I'm Julien, CPO at Roundtable.
Launching an investment fund in Europe is painfully complex:
- Need an AIFM license (€200k/year minimum - legal/tax included)
- 2-3 months of bureaucracy
- Can only market to professional investors in your country
This means only large institutions can afford to launch funds, while emerging
managers are locked out.
Roundtable is fund-as-a-service infrastructure that handles everything:
- We are your AIFM
- Legal docs included (LPA, Sub Agreement, PRIIPS KID)
- Launch in days, not months
- Market to professional + non-professional investors across EU
- Digital LP onboarding, capital calls, distributions
- US LP support available
Why we built this
Setting up a fund in Europe meant €200k/year minimum for an AIFM license (legal/tax included), and months of bureaucracy, before making a single investment. Emerging managers were being locked out by infrastructure designed for billion-dollar institutions. We built Roundtable to change that.
What we're most excited about
With our EUVECA license, funds can be marketed compliantly to non-professional and professional investors across all EU countries, including US LPs. Most platforms still lock you into professional-investor-only distribution in your home country. We don't.
What we need from you
Your honest feedback! Specifically:
- Fund managers: Would this solve your problems?
- LPs: Would you feel comfortable investing through this?
- Anyone: What are we missing?
Thanks for checking us out! Will be here all day answering questions.
@julien_fissette Hi Julien. Which parts of fund creation does Roundtable actually automate? Legal structure, compliance, investor onboarding, reporting? What parts of launching a fund still require human involvement despite the platform?
Roundtable
@kimberly_ross We've built a product and infra to automate all of these. However, there is still a human in the loop: compliance needs human review to take final decision on risky cases for instance. But the good thing for our customers is that they don't have to deal with it themselves: we do it for them!

This is a big unlock for emerging managers in Europe. Fund setup going from months to days with the EUVECA license is huge. Are you planning to expand beyond EU jurisdictions at some point?
Copus
The EUVECA license angle is really smart. Most fund in a box plays I have seen target US managers through SPV structures, but European emerging managers have been massively underserved. Being able to market to non professional investors across the whole EU is a game changer for smaller funds that cannot hit institutional minimums. What is the typical fund size you are seeing from early users?
Roundtable
Thanks @handuo !
Indeed Euveca even enables marketing to non profesionnal in Europe with tickets starting at 100k€!
For now the fund sizes are ranging from 8M€ to 300M€! And we have an average between 20 and 30M€!
Roundtable
@handuo Great question!
You're right, the EU is once more lagging the US, and we need to catch up.
The EUVECA license is designed to do just that with a European passport allowing to easily market across the EU.
We're seeing funds ranging from 10M€ up to 300M€ :)
Big congrats on the launch @julien_fissette !
Speaking from experience: we used Roundtable at Phacet to structure our seed round SPV and to run our BA club. What would have been months of legal back-and-forth was done in days.
Europe desperately needed this kind of infrastructure. Excited to see you open the door for more emerging managers !
Thanks for your support @willpa !!

@amaury_sepulchre2 Thanks for using us from the start!
Ohh great idea, this is going to scrap the hustle of raising capital from founders, as a founder, I think this is gonna help me a lot . I’m so excited to try it. Does it work for only the EU Market VCs and Angels?
Roundtable
@atwijukire_ariho_seth our setup complies with EU regulation, but it is possible for EU funds to raise from foreign investors as well.
However we cannot support just about any fund in any market, yet ;)
