On the heels of Germany announcing another lockdown to try to contain the rapid rise in Covid-19 cases in the country, one of the hottest startups in its capital city is announcing the closing of a large convertible note to help it keep moving forward. GetYourGuide, which in brighter times runs a thriving and viral business of arranging and running a series of walks and other exploration experiences for people touring different parts of the world -- viral because it's been taken up by a critical mass people who love to share pictures of their experiences on social media -- has now closed funding, in the form of a convertible note, of €114 million ($133 million). The funding is being led by Searchlight Capital, with SoftBank Vision Fund, KKR, Battery Ventures, Highland Europe, Spark Capital, Lakestar, Heartcore Capital, NGP Capital, and the founding team all also investing.
