Redalpine is a Zurich-founded venture capital firm established in 2006, built on the belief that the most important companies of the future emerge where software and science meet. Over nearly two decades, the firm has grown from a single early-stage fund into a multi-stage platform investing from Seed through IPO, with offices in Zug, Berlin, and London and more than $1.4 billion in assets under management.

Redalpine invests in frontier technology across fusion energy, AI, robotics, and biotech, backing teams where deep scientific expertise meets technology defensibility rather than following a fixed sector allocation.
About half of the investment team are trained scientists, including biologists, physicists, and engineers.
The firm reviews more than 5,000 companies a year and plans to back roughly 20 early-stage companies across Europe through its latest fund.

What the fund looks for in founders and which sectors it backs.
Redalpine announced the oversubscribed final close of redalpine capital VIII (RAC VIII) in November, 2026, at $250 million, its largest fund to date and a 25% increase over RAC VII's $200 million close in 2024.
The close took under 12 months from first to final close.
Limited partners include Aviva Investors, Flexstone Partners, and KfW, alongside a broader base of entrepreneurs, executives, and family offices; roughly a third of the fund's capital came from institutions new to Redalpine, including pension funds and insurers.
Up to 50% of the fund is reserved for follow-on investment in existing portfolio companies.
