LocalGlobe was co-founded by Robin and Saul Klein and has evolved into something closer to an urban operating system for London and European early-stage company formation than a standalone seed fund. As the pre-seed and seed vehicle inside the broader Phoenix Court family - alongside sister vehicles Latitude, Solar, and Basecamp - it benefits from unusually strong recycling of operator knowledge, angel networks, and neighborhood density rather than simply advertising founder support as a slogan. That ecosystem-design approach produced Wise, whose 2021 direct listing on the London Stock Exchange valued the fintech company at about $11 billion, one of the clearest proof points of London's fintech maturity.
