Cloudberry Ventures unveils new deeptech vehicle
London-based venture firm Cloudberry Ventures has launched a new €50 million fund focused on investing in deeptech startups, signaling an expansion of the firm’s next phase of investment activity. The new vehicle is expected to target early-stage companies developing science- and engineering-led technologies, a segment that has drawn increasing attention from venture capital as industries seek breakthroughs in areas such as advanced computing, robotics, and next-generation materials.
Focus on science-driven startups
While the firm has not disclosed detailed allocation plans, the fund’s mandate indicates a commitment to backing startups with defensible intellectual property and long development cycles—hallmarks of deeptech investing. These companies often require more patient capital than typical software ventures, but can offer significant upside if they achieve technical and commercial milestones.
Market context
The launch comes as European investors continue to weigh risk amid tighter fundraising conditions, even as strategic interest in advanced technologies remains strong. In recent years, deeptech has benefited from policy support, corporate demand for innovation, and growing awareness of technology sovereignty across the region. A dedicated €50 million fund positions Cloudberry Ventures to participate in this trend, potentially syndicating with other venture firms, corporate investors, and public funding programs.
What’s next
Cloudberry Ventures has not yet announced initial investments from the new fund. Further details on sector priorities, geographic focus, and check sizes are expected as the firm begins deploying capital and formalizes its pipeline of deeptech opportunities.
