About

Playfair is a London-based venture capital firm specializing in pre-seed investments across the UK and Europe. With a focused, high-conviction strategy, Playfair invests in approximately six companies annually from its $70M fund, prioritizing substantial post-investment support to drive success. Playfair distinguishes itself with an exceptional 78% portfolio company graduation rate to Series A funding – three times the industry average – having backed over 100 companies since 2013, including notable ventures like Thought Machine and Orca AI. This makes Playfair an attractive partner for early-stage startups seeking not only capital, but also dedicated resources and expertise to scale.
