Nexit Ventures

Nexit Ventures is a Helsinki-based venture capital firm with an additional office in Palo Alto, California, specializing in investments in European and US technology companies. Established in 1998, the firm primarily targets digital disruption, focusing on B2B software, SaaS, cloud computing, cybersecurity, AI/ML, and IoT sectors. Their core strategy revolves around identifying companies with global potential, particularly those ready to scale internationally, often acting as a "cross-Atlantic bridge" for European firms seeking to expand into the US market.

Nexit Ventures typically invests in Series A and B rounds, seeking companies that have demonstrated initial traction and are poised for significant growth. Their historical initial investment size has ranged from €2 million to €5 million, aiming to support companies through critical development and market expansion phases. The firm emphasizes a hands-on approach, leveraging its extensive network and operational expertise to assist portfolio companies in achieving their strategic objectives and international scaling.

Nexit Ventures has managed several funds, with Nexit Infocom III being their most recently publicized fund, which closed at €70 million in 2008. This fund, along with previous vehicles like Nexit Infocom I and II, has supported a portfolio of over 30 companies, resulting in more than 10 reported exits. While the firm's website outlines its investment thesis and historical check sizes, the public information suggests that new fundraises or significant new investment activity from a fresh fund have not been widely announced since the closing of Infocom III. This indicates that the firm may be primarily focused on managing its existing portfolio and realizing returns from its older funds.
