We’re a new type
of venture fund
We’re sponsors
of progress
Magnetic is a global technology investor. We use our capital and expertise to support entrepreneurial genius and the systemic shifts needed to push the world forward.
With a global mindset, we approach venture investing as a craft rooted in complexity, one that depends on championing brilliant founders at the frontiers of new technologies and economic systems. In order to do that, we undergo the deep inquiry needed to go where others fear to tread. Using deep knowledge and resolve, we back those reinventing the world’s financial system, our food supply and the way we consume — as we have done for many years, in Europe and beyond.
We fund breakthroughs
We are closely guided by our investment philosophy to maximize the commercial and societal impact of our work, towards a more resilient and prosperous future.
At the heart of our work stand systems thinking and the belief that true progress is driven by breakthrough undertakings that transform entire markets, often as iconic pioneers. That fundamentally change how they operate. That vastly increase access to important goods or services for a large amount of users. That ultimately will create the most meaningful outcomes.
Systems
Isolated technologies have isolated impact. For progress to happen, we need to back companies pursuing systemic change and transformation, in industries and beyond.
Access
Progress hinges on access. We focus on companies vastly increasing access to important goods and services, through technology or novel economic models. We fund those reducing society’s and industries’ dependence on technological, economic, ecological or geopolitical limitations.

Our investments target large outcomes that will transform important fields, sustainably, creating societies that are both prosperous and resilient.

Companies we have backed from the earliest stages:
Your partners, for the long term.
We aren’t limited by stage, we partner with founders and their teams from day one, or at any other point in their journey. While our core work happens early, we are long term capital partners.
We work with a lot of personal attention. Through wise counsel and access to networks and domain expertise, we support our portfolio companies as they navigate the unpredictability of company building, and frame their vision for a different world.
