Backing Europe's Aerospace & Defence Entrepreneurs
Expansion Ventures is an early-stage European investment fund dedicated to Aerospace and Defence technology companies. We invest from pre-seed through Series B, partnering with founders who are building the critical systems that will define Europe's long-term sovereignty and resilience. With €145M under management and 24 investments across the continent, we bring more than capital to the table. Our team combines deep sector expertise, strategic relationships, and hands-on operational support to help portfolio companies navigate complex regulatory, commercial and defence landscapes. We believe that Europe's independence depends on its ability to lead in dual-use deep technology, and we are committed to backing the entrepreneurs making that vision a reality.
