Oxford Seed Fund

Oxford Seed Fund is Europe's largest student- and alumni-managed venture fund, housed within Saïd Business School's Entrepreneurship Centre at the University of Oxford. It invests up to £100,000 into early-stage, technology-enabled startups where an Oxford student, alumnus, or member of academic staff is part of the founding team, and provides access to the wider Oxford network. Since its first fund in 2013, it has backed over 23 companies in that fund cycle, including two unicorns — Onfido and Go1 — with the second fund now active.
