About

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 100 companies, with six 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.
