Stratulat Albulescu, working alongside Orrick Herrington & Sutcliffe, has advised GapMinder Venture Partners on a follow-on investment in Romanian start-up Deepstash.
Deepstash is a Romanian start-up that developed a platform “where anyone can discover, share, and create knowledge,” reports Stratulat Albulescu. “With more than 1 million users across more than 150 countries, Deepstash is a curated platform of good ideas. The company’s proposition is simply to spend a few minutes a day with them to grow your 'stash.' The stash the company refers to is a collection of valuable ideas that can help improve one’s personal and professional life. The app contains multiple topics such as self-improvement, time management, communication, health, money, and so on.”
According to Stratulat Albulescu, “the financing round, led by London-based VC fund Connect Ventures, [which] totaled USD 3 million, will be used by [Deepstash] to finance the further development of its platform with a view to boosting the number of users. In addition to GapMinder, the round also included Cultivate Capital, as well as other European and American angel investors.”
Stratulat Albulescu’s team included Managing Partner Silviu Stratulat and Managing Associate Cristina Man.
Orrick’s team included London-based Partner Ylan Steiner and Managing Associate Jason Wu.
