About our Late-Stage Portfolio

This company is part of our Late-Stage Portfolio, a set of investments that reflect what technologies we believe Europe must build and scale in the next decade. We focus on areas such as AI and advanced computing, stronger security and defence capabilities, as well as a more resilient energy and climate infrastructure. We back companies that strengthen Europe’s capacity to compete and stay self-reliant, while aspiring to global expansion. We believe Europe’s next generation of category-defining companies will emerge where strategic necessity intersects with commercial scalability.
