About

Octopus Ventures, part of Octopus Investments, is one of the largest and most active venture capital investors in Europe. Our mission is simple – to invest in the people, ideas, and industries that will change the world.

For the last few years, we’ve focused our efforts, and our investments, on three areas where we think we can make the biggest impact. We focus on building a more sustainable planet, empowering people, and revitalizing healthcare.


We live in a changing world. But we believe that a new world is possible – one where the most successful companies are a force for good. The entrepreneurs we back are reimagining how whole industries behave.

We’re backing teams who are eliminating carbon footprints, creating cancer vaccines, building the next phase of the internet, and charting a greener approach to space travel, to name just a few. By 2030 we aim to have invested £10 billion in the industries that are bringing about positive change.
