Acton Capital

Breega is one of the fastest growing VC funds in Europe with more than €500M AUM. We built Breega to provide founders with the help we wish we’d had. Breega propels pioneering and purpose-driven founders from idea into impact. We closed our first fund in 2015 and now have €500m AUM and 70 trailblazing portfolio companies. Crafted for founders by founders, we built Breega to provide start-ups with the help we wish we'd had. And we’ve created an investment proposition that’s purposefully designed. We call it full stack funding: providing capital and connections, expertise and experience, support and solidarity for entrepreneurs at every step of their journey. We invest across Europe through our 3 offices in Paris, London and Barcelona, focusing on pre-seed to Series B stage. We believe in a future where tech entrepreneurship has catalysed universal prosperity – so we decided to build a different kind of VC. Build by Founders. As entrepreneurs ourselves, we’ve been through the highs and lows of founding, failing, fundraising and flourishing. We built Breega to provide founders with the help we wish we’d had. For Founders. We wanted to “Bridge the Equity and Experience Gap” (hence the name Breega) – and fulfill the lack of operational expertise we saw in VC at that time. Breega began investing in 2015. We now have 70+ trailblazing startups in our portfolio. Our purpose today. To propel pioneering and purpose-driven founders from idea to impact.

Established in 1999, Oxford Capital is an alternative investment manager that is passionate about investing in early stage technology companies where the UK is considered a world leader and has supported over 50 high growth companies. We believe in using the depth and breadth of our experience and expertise to create opportunities where the chances of success are increased for entrepreneurs and their businesses. We partner with founders to deliver meaningful impact in their sector, often taking a seat on the board to help them to shape strategy, attract talent and connect the business with potential customers, suppliers and partners. We offer private investors and family offices the opportunity to invest in a portfolio of unquoted UK companies that have the potential to grow rapidly and become valuable. Based in Oxford and London, we are at the heart of Europe’s most exciting technology clusters.

We invest alongside the leading global VC firms, so that founders can have both a leading VC and us on their cap table. We don’t lead deals and we don’t take board seats. Our LP’s include exited entrepreneurs, leaders at global tech companies, venture-backed founders, family offices, leading angels, CEO’s & board members of public companies. We fight to win allocation based on our reputation for fundraising expertise and our valuable network – consisting of both commercial customers and access to our global network of industry leaders.
