Seedcamp is Europe's original first-cheque seed fund, founded in May 2007 and headquartered in London, United Kingdom. It backs founders from day one, writing first cheques primarily at the pre-seed and seed stages (typically between roughly $350,000 and $1 million) and following winners into later rounds through its Select fund toward Series B and beyond. Seedcamp is broadly sector-agnostic across software and technology, with concentrations in artificial intelligence, fintech, healthtech, cybersecurity, open-source, enterprise software, and developer tools. In June 2026 the firm announced it had raised $320 million — $220 million for Seedcamp VII (its flagship first cheque fund) and $100 million for the Select fund — pushing assets under management past $1 billion. The "Seedcamp Nation" now spans 500-plus companies, including publicly listed UiPath and Wise and unicorns such as Revolut, Synthesia, Sorare, Pleo, wefox, and viz.ai. Seedcamp Investment Management LLP is authorised and regulated by the UK Financial Conduct Authority.
