We're investors for
critical industries
We're sponsors
of progress
Magnetic is a European venture capital firm. We fund transformative technology companies in critical industries. Most of our work happens in four domains: the compute-energy stack, security, financial technologies, and physical economy systems.
We have partnered with exceptional game-changers over the past decade, across a wide range of technologies and markets. We use this expertise and our capital to support brilliant founders at the frontiers of new technologies and economic systems. We approach venture investing as a craft rooted in complexity, one that depends on seeing things before others do, on going different paths with patience.
We back important missions
Our thesis is simple: true progress and enduring value come from fundamentally transforming critical industries. Magnetic operates with ultimate ambition, partnering with unstoppable founders and companies reimagining our most essential fields – driven by software, guided by systems thinking, and built to scale.
We measure ourselves against the economic and societal value we create. We believe in the power of technology and entrepreneurship to generate a maximum of impact, to make our lives secure, to drive resilience and promote prosperity and civilization.
We are excited by companies with software-driven technology and product at their heart. Magnetic supports them from the earliest stages, strategically and with personal dedication, and we use our platform and network to drive the lasting success of the founders we back.
Criticality
Magnetic backs the software and systems that move money, run the physical economy, secure our world, and align compute with power.
Scale & System
Isolated technologies have isolated and limited impact. For progress to happen, we need large commercial successes and companies building systems around their technologies. We help to establish that scale, for truly iconic and meaningful companies.
Value
Our work drives societal and public interests. We invest to vastly increase access to foundational technologies, to advance autonomy, to close opportunity gaps or to rejuvenate important industries.

Your partners, for the long term.
We partner with founders from day one, sometimes even before. While our core work happens early, we are long term capital partners, and backers of choice for some of the most exceptional entrepreneurs and technologists.
We work with a lot of personal attention and patience. Through Magnetic's unparalleled network of Strategic Partners, we support our portfolio companies as they navigate the unpredictability of company building, and frame their vision for a different world.
