About This Fund
The Armilar IV fund is positioned to back exceptional deep‑technology founders across the Iberian Peninsula, with a specific interest in companies that fuse advanced science and enterprise‑grade software. With a first close of around €120 million and an ultimate target near €240 million by late 2026, Armilar IV offers meaningful capital to support follow‑on growth and scale financing. It builds on the longstanding track record of Armilar Venture Partners—who have supported companies like OutSystems and Feedzai—from regional innovators to global platforms. The investment thesis of Armilar IV centres on B2B enterprises with robust technical moats, demonstrable product‑market fit, and the capacity to expand internationally from Spain and Portugal. The fund plans to make approximately 20 investments over its lifetime, combining cheque writing with active operational support and board participation to accelerate commercial traction. The targeting sectors span AI, cybersecurity, healthtech and spacetech—areas where scientific research meets software innovation. The fund believes that Iberia’s deep‑tech ecosystem is at an inflection point, and that institutional‑scale capital like this can bridge the gap between early research and global commercial deployment. By focusing on companies at the junction of science and software, Armilar IV seeks to partner with technical founding teams that are under‑leveraged in large European growth rounds, providing the scale and guidance needed to lead expansion rounds and become internationally competitive.
