EQT Ventures is the early-stage venture capital business within EQT Group, launched in 2016 and operating out of Stockholm with investment-advisory offices in London, Berlin, Paris, Amsterdam, and the United States (San Francisco / New York); the funds themselves are domiciled in Luxembourg. The firm is a sector-agnostic, conviction-led lead investor that backs what it calls "Generation-Defining Companies" from pre-seed and seed through Series A and B, writing checks that reported ranges place between roughly EUR 1M and EUR 75M (most commonly EUR 2M-50M) and following on as companies scale. EQT Ventures has raised approximately EUR 2.3B across three funds (EQT Ventures I, II, and III) and is staffed largely by ex-founders and operators who provide hands-on support in addition to capital. Its focus spans AI, SaaS and developer tools, fintech, healthtech, climate and deeptech, robotics and aerospace, gaming, and consumer/marketplaces. Notable investments include Wolt, Depop, Typeform, AnyDesk, Netlify, Fly.io, Einride, Small Giant Games, Kry, and Beamery.
Firms are ranked by cumulative portfolio strength — how many highly-rated API companies they've backed, weighted by tier across composite quality and agent-readiness. The averages below are a secondary read on the typical company in the book.
EQT Ventures has 94 portfolio companies tracked on the APIs.io network, of which 94 (100%) publish APIs indexed here.
Its highest-rated API providers on the network are Netlify, Kota, Endgame, Frontify, Token.
Portfolio on the Network
Portfolio companies that publish APIs indexed on APIs.io, grouped by their
API Evangelist rating. Exemplar and Strong are expanded by default.
The 94 portfolio companies with APIs in the catalog, backed by
EQT Ventures, scored on the Kin Score. Every figure below is computed from
the catalog — nothing here is written.
A facet is averaged over the members that carry it, not over the whole cohort — the
“Scored” column is that count. Averaging an absent facet as zero would score our own
coverage gaps as the providers’ posture.
