About Us
Empirical Ventures catalyses transformative innovation in DeepTech by bridging the gap between groundbreaking R&D (Pre-Seed and Seed) and market readiness (Series A and beyond). We are backing multidisciplinary teams of scientists who combine exceptional scientific talent with innate entrepreneurial drive to develop transformative technologies across life sciences, advanced materials, robotics, quantum computing, advanced engineering, space, and frontier enterprise sectors like AI/ML.
Empirical Ventures holds a unique position in the market to excel as an investor in pre-seed and seed-stage DeepTech startups. Drawing from the team's deep experience as scientists, operators, entrepreneurs, and investors, Empirical Ventures is one of the few funds capable of addressing the specific challenges of investing in this sector and unlocking the investment opportunities in this space.
We are looking for passionate and capable individuals who thrive in a dynamic, entrepreneurial environment and are eager to be part of a team that drives innovation on a global scale finding, funding and supporting the best entrepreneurial scientists tackling global issues.
We have a management company (Empirical Ventures Ltd) and manage our UK DeepTech SEIS and EIS Fund. We also have a venture studio that co-creates new DeepTech businesses with the best entrepreneurial scientists. Finally the Dr Ben Miles Youtube Channel (780k subscribers), creates a global platform for Empirical that helps to extend the influence of our brand.
We are an ambitious Fund looking to create the next Tier 1 fund for DeepTech founders in Europe and we are looking for people interested in joining us on this journey.
