Project Ventures launched a €5.8 million (£5 million) fund to back pre-seed and seed companies connected to Imperial College London and working across deep technology and AI. The firm plans investments of €116k (£100k) to €349k (£300k) and has already backed Tewke, NexusAM and Neubond.

More than 80% of the fund's limited partners are Imperial alumni. Its stated focus includes energy, advanced manufacturing, robotics and healthcare, and it aims to close the fund by summer 2027. The vehicle is therefore launched but has not yet reached its planned final close.
