Investment thesis
i4 Capital is a seed-stage deep-tech venture fund that backs companies building complex, patentable, R&D-driven disruptive technologies with the potential to transform industries. Acting as a lead investor, it takes a proactive, hands-on approach, leveraging its entrepreneurial spirit, technical expertise and fund-governance experience to serve as a strategic partner rather than a passive financier. It seeks strong founding teams, clear competitive advantages backed by robust IP, large high-growth international markets (over $1B), value alignment and trust with founders, and ambitious companies capable of exceptional exits. The fund draws on a wide network of entrepreneurs, investors, industrials, incubators, accelerators, universities and research centers.
