Exceptional Ventures is a London-based venture capital firm dedicated to investing in high-impact startups that improve the world by helping people live healthier, happier, and longer lives while supporting a sustainable planetary ecosystem. The firm backs founders who are transforming human longevity, health, and happiness, focusing on scientifically proven innovations to maximise human 'Joyspan®' – the years lived in good health, purpose, and happiness. Through EV Fund 1, targeting £20M, the firm built a portfolio of 40+ early-stage startups over three years, primarily in the UK/EU and opportunistically across the rest of the world, across the sectors of HealthTech, FoodTech and Financial Health. EV Fund 2 (launched 2025) builds on those learnings with a sharper focus on HealthTech, targeting 50–60 companies across prevention, early detection, and smarter care delivery.
