They will also grow their team by adding more experts in operations and manufacturing to better support the companies they invest in.

Geopolitical problems can cause risks like supply chain issues and cyber attacks, so good planning and strong systems are very important.

The Danish VC team—who have worked with some of Europe’s biggest manufacturers—are looking for new and smart ideas in Europe, the US, and Israel.

“We are witnessing a global shift in the geopolitical and regulatory order across continents, which has created significant vulnerabilities and increased the pressure to innovate”, says Talia Rafaeli, Partner at KOMPAS VC.

“To build the resilience our industrial partners will need in the coming years, they must harness today’s breakthrough opportunities in artificial intelligence, robotics, material science, and synthetic biology. This will allow them to manage risks better and improve their productivity growth, improving their decarbonisation profile. We have the capital and risk appetite to back ambitious founders who develop these much-needed industry solutions, and help them scale,” adds Rafaeli.

KOMPAS VC is a venture capital firm that invests in early-stage startups. It has offices in Amsterdam, Barcelona, Berlin, and Copenhagen.

They support technologies that help reduce carbon emissions, improve productivity, and protect businesses from global risks.

“We are focused on the application layer of industrial tech. With Fund II, KOMPAS VC is doubling down on its strategy to work closely with industry partners to identify the most promising technology solutions for the manufacturing industry and the built environment and to support founders with capital and unrivalled industry access,” says Sebastian Peck, Partner at KOMPAS VC.

“The insights we derive from our industry network provide important impulses for our investment selection and help us understand when new technologies are ready for adoption. This gives us a real edge in the market,” adds Peck.
