Tapestry, which was started by Web Summit cofounder David Kelly and fund manager Patrick Murphy, said it had raised $31 million for its second fund from 16 investors, out of a target of $50 million. The fund is expected to make investments of up to $1 million in seed and pre-seed rounds, targeting software, fintech and breakthrough technologies.

“The Opportunity Fund really came together over the last six months.
