And the numbers prove it:
While the term "mafia" generally carries a negative connotation, as Accel coined it, the startup mafia refers to a vast network of second-generation startups — aka unicorn factories.
They grow worldwide because of strong personal connections, deep experience, and shared success stories gained after working in great companies.
In the fast-paced FinTech scene, few stories are as compelling as the emergence of the "Revolut Mafia".
Much like the famed PayPal Mafia that produced tech luminaries such as Elon Musk and Peter Thiel, Revolut alumni have made — and continue to make — significant waves across the startup ecosystem.
The Revolut Mafia has now raised over $565 million in total funding.
Revolut became known for its “Never Settle” culture.
Intense. KPI-driven. Obsessed with shipping fast.
And you can clearly see that DNA in the companies built by its alumni.
According to Chris Pisarski (using Crustdata (YC F24)’s People Search + Funding APIs), here are the most-funded ex-Revolut founders:
Sardine — $146M Soups Ranjan, Adi G., Zahid Shaikh
Fuse Energy — $100M Alan Chang, Charles O.
Shares — $92.6M Harjas Singh
Belvo — $72.3M Pablo Viguera, Oriol H.
