“Building businesses to promote progress.
Ambitious, ethical companies progressing science and technology contribute to a thriving and resilient society. Our objective is to be active foundational partners of next generation European companies driving positive global change.
We partner with scientists, engineers and inventors who operate in the technological realm with immense imagination and intense purpose. Together we will solve a fraction of the world’s most pressing challenges and contribute to a better future.
Bind bits + atoms to make a quantum leap.
Digital technology has dominated the last two decades of social, cultural and economic change. Prima Materia is backing the breakthrough champions who, in decades to come will advance progress in STEM through transformation of the physical world.
By building radical solutions that scale, Prima Materia will be an agent of systematic change to ameliorate society: healthier people, a healthier planet and healthier institutions.
We value focus and active ownership.
In a world where capital has become faceless and optionality drives decision making, we believe that the value of a company is the sum of problems solved. Working with extreme conviction on focused challenges allows us to bring to bear all our experience to give our partners and goals absolute dedication and attention.
We invest time and resources needed to understand the significant complexity behind the problems our companies are addressing. This resolution, our deep network and experience building transformational companies, allows us to provide high context, high impact support across the entire company lifecycle…”
