FOV Ventures

FOV Ventures is a European venture capital firm specializing in early-stage investments in the metaverse and spatial computing sectors. Founded by industry veterans, the firm focuses on startups developing technologies in augmented reality (AR), virtual reality (VR), artificial intelligence (AI), and robotics. With offices in Helsinki, London, and Paris, FOV Ventures aims to support ambitious founders building the next era of computing—more intelligent, spatial, and human.

The firm typically invests between €100,000 and €1 million at the pre-seed and seed stages, often leading rounds or co-investing with other venture capital firms and angel investors. FOV Ventures is particularly interested in companies operating in the metaverse, including those focused on identity, avatars, commerce, entertainment, social platforms, and creator tools. The firm has a strong network, known as its "Edge Network," comprising leaders from major tech companies, which helps in scouting new investments and supporting portfolio companies.

FOV Ventures has made several notable investments in the metaverse space, including in companies like ReadyPlayerMe, a cross-game avatar platform, and The Dematerialised, a Web3 marketplace for authenticated virtual goods. The firm believes that the metaverse represents a trillion-dollar opportunity over the next decade, fundamentally changing how people play, socialize, shop, and work. By backing innovative startups in this space, FOV Ventures aims to help shape the future of digital experiences.
