About

Britbots, established by Dominic Keen in 2016, is a UK-based venture capital firm that specializes in investing in early-stage robotics, artificial intelligence (AI), and automation companies. The firm is recognized for its focus on addressing global productivity challenges through automation technologies, which it sees as critical to counteracting declining labor growth, environmental strain, and energy inefficiencies. Britbots manages several funds, including the British Robotics Seed Fund and the Scale-Up Fund, both of which are structured to take advantage of the UK government's SEIS (Seed Enterprise Investment Scheme) and EIS (Enterprise Investment Scheme) tax incentives. These funds primarily target high-potential startups that are developing cutting-edge robotics and AI technologies, with a strong emphasis on capital-efficient projects that can deliver substantial productivity gains. Notable companies in Britbots' portfolio include Muddy Machines, which develops autonomous robots for agricultural tasks, and RAD Propulsion, which creates advanced propulsion systems for the marine industry. The firm’s investments are characterized by their focus on innovative solutions that combine sophisticated software with accessible, off-the-shelf hardware, making advanced robotics more affordable and scalable. Britbots' investment strategy involves not just capital support but also active mentorship and operational guidance, helping startups navigate technical challenges and scale their innovations. This approach is designed to foster long-term growth and deliver significant returns by backing startups that are poised to become leaders in their fields.
