Project Ventures launches Imperial-linked debut fund
The alumni-backed vehicle will write early cheques for founders combining science, engineering and AI.
The debut fund brings an alumni investment model to Imperial College London’s startup community. More than 80% of its limited partners are Imperial alumni, giving founders access to a network with experience of technical development and commercialisation.
Project Ventures describes the vehicle as a £5 million fund and plans to complete its close by summer 2027. It has already invested in Tewke, NexusAM and Neubond, covering home energy management, metal-printing quality assurance and stroke rehabilitation. The launch announcement does not establish the amount already closed.
