This week, the 28-year-old venture capital firm debuted a new pair of funds totaling $2.3 billion, a substantial sum during an abysmal time for the industry's fundraising efforts. The European-born firm is structured in a way that investors across continents invest out of the same funds. The new funds include $800 million to invest at the early stage and $1.5 billion to invest in growth. Those figures are slightly down from the firm's last fundraise, when it collected $900 million for an early-stage fund and $2 billion for a growth fund. That year, Index saw seven portfolio companies go public at a market cap of more than $1 billion, including Roblox and Robinhood.

Vertical software, or software tailored to specific industries, is poised to do well amid the current economic downturn, two VCs at Index Ventures said. When considering vertical-software companies to invest in, the most important thing they look for is the right kind of founding team. For vertical-software companies, it's important that the founders are familiar with the industry they're trying to sell to, they said.
