Alpha Intelligence Capital

Alpha Intelligence Capital (AIC) is a Luxembourg-based global venture capital firm specializing in investments in deep Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) technology companies. Established with a clear mandate to back ventures at the forefront of AI innovation, AIC targets companies that possess proprietary AI technology as their core differentiator, rather than merely utilizing AI as a tool. The firm operates with a global perspective, maintaining offices in key innovation hubs such as Luxembourg, San Francisco, and Paris, enabling it to source and support promising AI startups across North America, Europe, and Asia.

AIC's investment strategy is primarily focused on early-growth stage companies, typically participating in Series A and Series B funding rounds. While their sweet spot is often these stages, they also demonstrate flexibility to engage in select Seed rounds or later-stage opportunities, depending on the strategic fit and the disruptive potential of the technology. The firm seeks out companies developing foundational AI solutions that can transform industries, from healthcare and finance to manufacturing and cybersecurity. Their approach extends beyond capital provision, offering strategic guidance and access to a network of AI experts and industry leaders to accelerate portfolio company growth.

The firm has successfully raised significant capital to support its investment thesis. For instance, its second fund, AIC II, closed at $250 million, underscoring investor confidence in their specialized AI focus and investment methodology. This capital base allows AIC to make substantial initial investments, typically ranging from $5 million to $15 million for a first cheque, enabling portfolio companies to scale their operations and further develop their cutting-edge technologies. As of early 2024, AIC's portfolio comprises over 30 companies, showcasing a diverse array of AI applications and demonstrating the firm's commitment to building a robust ecosystem of deep AI innovators.
