Our Agenda

Our Agenda

We back ventures advancing one or more of Europe’s four defining agendas, rebuilding the physical, digital, and social infrastructure that underpins the continent’s future.

We back ventures advancing one or more of Europe’s four defining agendas, rebuilding the physical, digital, and social infrastructure that underpins the continent’s future.

01: Connected Continent

Improving movement and
shared infrastructure.

02: Collective Well-Being

Advancing health, welfare,
and security for all.

03: Green Frontier

Environmental stewardship
and clean energy.

04: Economic Engine

Driving trade, business,
and competitiveness.

Our Thesis

Europe’s next transformation will be driven by the convergence of deep technologies—artificial intelligence, automation, new materials, and energy systems. Together, they’re rewriting how Europe produces, moves, powers, and cares.

We back the builders of this new era, where infrastructure meets design, and advanced technology reshapes the systems that sustain Europe’s autonomy, competitiveness, and long-term resilience.

Our Approach

We invest early, when conviction, context, and capability matter most. Our capital is patient and hands-on, designed to help founders navigate the complexity of regulated and system-heavy markets.

Why 21st Europe

21st Europe operates across two dimensions: an independent practice designing blueprints for Europe’s future, and a venture fund investing in the technologies that make them real.
