Tensor Ventures is a Prague-based, Luxembourg-domiciled deep-tech venture capital firm that 'explores deep tech innovation's frontiers and invests in uncharted territories.' The firm embraces 'inevitable tectonic shifts' — the rise of AI, the Quantum Revolution, Computational Biotech, and Sustainable Tech — investing only in sectors it is fluent in, including quantum technologies, AI/ML, TechBio, cybersecurity, semiconductors, and Software 2.0/3.0. It participates in Seed and Series A rounds, sometimes leading and sometimes co-investing with trusted partners, and sources deals through proprietary methods including university referrals and corporate partnerships with Intel and NVIDIA. Its second €50M fund, backed by the European Investment Fund with €20M, allocates roughly half its capital to Czech startups and half globally across CEE and beyond.
Notable quotes
“At Tensor Ventures, we chose deep instead of vanilla and easy. Opted to support bold, unknown solutions over safe, existing ones. That's what Tensor Ventures is about.”
“Our initial investment sweet spot is around €1 million, with a total allocation of up to €2.5 million per project. We're all about deep tech — whether it's quantum, digital biotech, cyber security, or AI. We're investing in the verticals that make the change happen.”
“Initially, investors joined because they trusted our expertise. It was something new for them, and they knew it was beneficial to invest early in this fast-growing segment. More recently, investors have been motivated by the sector's resilience to fluctuations in global investment trends, with year-over-year stable growth in deep tech investments.”
