Investment thesis
7percent Ventures focuses on ambitious, high-risk, high-reward startups rather than incremental market iterations, seeking potential 200x outcomes. The firm backs breakthrough technologies and products it believes will become indispensable within a decade. It invests at pre-seed and seed stages, having operated first as angel investors and then as VCs for over a decade. Its partners are former founders who operated in both the UK and US, giving them empathy for and insight into the founder journey. The firm offers access to expertise and capital through three networks it co-founded. It runs two funds: Fund 1, built from founder capital, direct investments and SPVs, and Fund 2, an Enterprise Capital Fund backed by the British Business Bank.
