Itxaso shared with us her unique background, her journey to becoming a VC and the work she has done so far at Notion. We recently caught up with Itxaso del Palacio, a Partner at Notion Capital. Notion is also the founding fund of Included VC, the venture capital fellowship for individuals from diverse and overlooked communities from around the world. The fund’s investments include Go-Cardless, Paddle, Currencycloud, and Tradeshift. Having made 80+ investments to date, the Notion team founded, built, and exited two successful SaaS businesses – Star and MessageLabs. Notion is a European VC fund in the B2B SaaS and cloud space with more than $700 million in assets under management. One VC that pioneered SaaS investing in Europe is Notion Capital. In Europe, we have seen SaaS becoming one of the most viable and profitable models for startups to scale globally with VCs taking notice and investing in them.
