About Octopus Ventures

At Octopus Ventures we invest in the people, the ideas and the industries that will help change the world. Our investment team is built to specialize in the five areas where we see the most potential for growth and innovation: health, fintech, deep tech, consumer and B2B software. Since 2008 we have backed over 130 teams, from household names Zoopla, Secret Escapes, and Cazoo, to companies focusing on leading in their niche, like City Pantry and HAS Technology. With 1.7 billion under management and investing over 200 million a year, Octopus Ventures is one of the largest and most active venture investors in Europe. We tend to invest from 1 million for Seed to 10 million for Series B with the ability to fund the companies backed right through to IPO.
