Molten Ventures (formerly Draper Esprit) invests in Europe’s tech leaders at Series A and beyond. Our companies use technology to create better ways of doing things. We focus on four sectors; Consumer technology, Digital Health & Wellness, Ai, Deeptech & Hardware, Cloud, Enterprise & Saas.

We look for high-growth companies with strong IP, powerful technology, and outstanding management teams. They operate in new markets, with serious potential for global expansion. We also look for strong margins to ensure sustainable growth, particularly for companies on a journey to profitability.

We offer investors access to private companies, in the high growth phase. Entrepreneurs come to us once they’ve initially proven their idea, and are ready to grow. We’re providing a rare opportunity to invest in companies that aspire to be attractive candidates for acquisition or IPO, with valuations from $50m to $1bn+.

o2h Ventures, a specialist biotech fund manager based in the heart of the thriving biotech community in Cambridge, UK. We invest in early-stage biotech companies involved in novel drug discovery, enabling service tools, and AI/ML technologies. Currently, we have two tax-efficient human health funds open for investment: the Enterprise Investment Scheme and the Seed Enterprise Investment Scheme.

To date, through our funds, we have invested over $10 million in 35+ early-stage biotech companies, empowering impactful research addressing unmet medical needs in areas such as cancer, depression, diseases of the ear and eye, psoriasis, idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, anti-ageing, and infectious diseases.

Octopus is synonymous with small company investing and is the UK’s largest specialist manager of tax efficient investments, managing more than £13bn on behalf of both retail and institutional investors. Our experience spans more than 20 years and, in that time, we have invested over £2 billion in early-stage companies.

Each Octopus Ventures EIS portfolio will have around 10-15 companies selected for their ambitious growth targets and potential to become a household name of the future. Investors will have access to the expertise of Octopus Ventures, one of the largest venture capital teams in Europe. Our previous track record for identifying, growing and exiting some of Britain’s brightest companies includes investments in Graze, Secret Escapes, Zoopla and Tails.com, to name but a few. Our pipeline of opportunities spans very early stage (seed) through to Series A and Series B investments.

We have aligned our fees with the interests of our investors. Our annual management charge is only payable if a company is sold for more than the amount invested into it.
