Octopus Ventures

About

Octopus Ventures is a collective of experts and individuals. Disparate world views and diverse skill sets, yet with a shared purpose; to invest in a world that we, and future generations, can be proud of.

Our belief is that you can build a better tomorrow by investing in it. Yet for us, investment is multi-dimensional, and will always be about more than just money. It means giving time, energy and focus, committing to a cause; to a belief, to optimism.

With offices in London and New York and a network that spans from San Francisco to China, we’re one of Europe’s largest and most active venture capital investors.

Our specialist investment teams deploy more than £200 million ever year, from Seed to Series B, across five areas where we see the maximum potential for growth, innovation, and impact: health, fintech, deep tech, consumer and B2B software.

In total, we’ve backed over 140 teams, some of whom have gone on to join forces with the world’s largest businesses including Google, Amazon, Microsoft and Twitter.
