Backed VC
Profile
BACKED VC is Europe’s seed‑stage frontier‑tech fund. We partner with generational founders building category-defining companies. Our current fund focussed on three domains where our team and network have proven edge: AI‑native therapeutics, blockchain and banking infrastructure, and manufacturing automation. Founded in 2016, BACKED has invested in over 100 companies, with five unicorns and 21 businesses above $100m enterprise value. We lead pre‑seed and seed deals with $500k–$5m tickets, then stay the course through Series A.
Beyond capital, BACKED differentiates through our global events platform — hosting 40+ events a year to gather together 4,000+ founders, operators and investors. Our mission is to take European founders global.
