Nauta is a pan-European venture capital firm, managing over €600M, and investing in early-stage B2B software and deeptech companies
With offices in London and Barcelona, Nauta has a team of 20 people, and over 20 years’ experience in early-stage VC investing.
As a sector-agnostic investor, Nauta’s main areas of interest include B2B software products with differentiation and defensibility, vertically focused enterprise tech transforming large industries, as well as deep tech innovations and applications tackling the frontiers of engineering and science.
Reason for commitment from British Business Bank
Nauta is an established relationship for the British Business Bank, having made commitments to the Manager’s four most recent funds (three venture and one opportunities fund). This includes a €30m commitment to Nauta Tech Invest VI, their most recent core, venture strategy fund. This aligns closely with the Bank’s strategy of supporting the UK’s most promising companies in the Industrial Strategy sector of Digital and Technologies.
The British Business Bank’s support has helped Nauta, a Spanish GP, become established in the UK and allowed them to build out a significant presence here. This in turn, has supported the expansion of the UK as a core market for Nauta, where they now deploy about a third of their capital.
