What we offer founders
We write big cheques, early
Unlike most pre-seed and seed investors, we are unafraid to write significant cheques ($500k – $2.5m) into pre-revenue, often pre-product companies – to enable you to focus on building.
We match you with world-class operators
Our Venture Partners have built 50 of the top 100 human capital development companies in the world. We match you with mentors, advisors and even independent board members from this community, to accelerate your path to product-market fit and Series A.
We’re in your corner when you raise
When the time is right, we move mountains to raise your next round. 80% of our fund investments have gone on to raise up-rounds following our initial investment, raising from Index, Maveron, Lakestar, Partech, Iconiq, Earlybird, LocalGlobe, First Round and Founder Collective.

Why we are here
Emerge is a $75m pre-seed fund backed by 100+ of the world’s best human capital development operators. AI is fundamentally reshaping how we learn, find and do our jobs, and the companies that harness this shift will define the future. Our vision is to unlock human potential by being a catalytic partner for early-stage founders focused on this seismic shift.
We were the first specialist future of work and learning investor in Europe. Over the past decade, we have made 80+ investments in companies now valued at over $2b and impacting more than 31M people worldwide.
The reason we do what we do is because we got lucky. We’re the kids of immigrants, refugees and working-class parents, and we were lucky to receive world-class education and training that gave us access to career opportunities our parents could only dream of.
Now we are on a mission to support the most important transition the world will see this century. The opportunity to live up to your full potential should not be a privilege but a right for everyone.
