Activity from announced rounds
Lux Capital invests in companies emerging from the life sciences, physical sciences and computational sciences, including biotechnology, robotics, aerospace, defence and AI infrastructure.
Its investment approach includes small Seeds, Experiments and Optionality investments that let it engage with technology before a conventional venture case is established. The firm also makes thesis-driven investments and backs founders working on technically difficult problems.
Lux’s Riskgaming programme uses researched scenarios to examine how technological developments interact with geopolitics and national security. That perspective is especially relevant for founders whose commercial opportunity depends on scientific progress, industrial adoption or government demand.
Varda builds spacecraft that manufacture materials in low Earth orbit and return them to Earth. Its capsules support microgravity pharmaceutical development and materials processing, followed by controlled reentry and post-flight analysis of returned payloads.
Builds highly maneuverable orbital transfer vehicles and kick stages for in-space mobility and satellite logistics
EnduroSat designs and manufactures modular, software-defined satellites and components, and provides mission services for commercial and institutional operators.
