About Molten
Ventures
Molten Ventures is a leading
venture capital firm in Europe, developing and investing in
disruptive, high growth technology companies. We inject visionary
companies with energy to help them to transform and grow. This
energy comes in many forms - capital, of course, but also
knowledge, experience, and relationships. We believe it is our role
to support the entrepreneurs who will invent the future, and that
future is being built, today, in Europe.
As at 31 March 2024, Molten
Ventures had a diverse portfolio with shareholdings in 118
companies, 20 of which represent our Core holdings and account for
62% of the Gross Portfolio Value. Our Core companies include
Thought Machine, Coachhub, Aiven, Ledger and Aircall. We invest
across four sectors: Enterprise Technology, Hardware and Deeptech,
Consumer Technology, and Digital Health and Wellness, with highly
experienced partners constantly looking for new opportunities in
each. We look for high-growth companies operating in new markets,
with high potential for global expansion, strong IP, powerful
technology, and strong management teams to deliver success. We also
look for businesses with the potential to generate strong margins
to ensure rapid, sustainable growth in substantial addressable
markets.
A member of the London Stock
Exchange’s FTSE 250, Molten Ventures provides a unique opportunity
for public market investors to access these fast-growing tech
businesses, without having to commit to long term investments with
limited liquidity. Since our IPO in June 2016, we have deployed
over £1bn capital into fast growing tech companies and have
realised over £520m to 31 March 2024. For more information, go to
