He was recently crowned the "Venture Capital King of Europe." Along with his three brothers, he runs Index Ventures, a VC fund that focuses on European technology companies. Danny is known to many in the States for his work as an Internet analyst at Hambrecht & Quist and as a partner with the Barksdale Group.He is one of five young VC's, 40 and under, who have just been named by The Deal's Tech Confidential as "Early Stage Stars."
