Our focus areas include:
- Transportation and Logistics transformation.

We are usually the first investor at the pre-Seed or Seed stage and we invest up to £1Million with first stage investments typically between £50k and £500k. We invest in UK head-quartered businesses across the UK where the investment round qualifies for SEIS and/or EIS.
Aer Ventures is run by experienced entrepreneurs and investors with experience and a track record in the sustainability and critical materials sectors. We leverage our sector expertise, knowledge and networks to help businesses with potentially high impact solutions scale quickly, providing investment and business support to help entrepreneurs fund, develop, test and commercialise their technologies quickly and to help reduce risks. This includes providing strategic advice, product development, business development, marketing and operational scaling support and expertise.
