Atlantic Labs

Atlantic leads pre-seed rounds across Europe, usually as a company's first institutional investor, and states it has backed over 200 teams as first-round lead. The firm organises its current focus around four themes it names on its approach page: AI & Compute, Energy & Climate, Industrial & Robotics, and Space & Security, and says it also backs ideas that do not fit existing venture categories. Its SFDR disclosure describes Atlantic Labs 4 as targeting AI and data, industrial tech and robotics, climate and energy tech, and space and resilience tech, while the earlier Atlantic Labs 3 also covered digital health, future of work, mobility, fintech and proptech. Both funds explicitly exclude food and food-value-chain business models, which are handled by the separate FoodLabs vehicle.
