Necta Ventures, the venture capital fund of funds backed by Antai Ventures and Banco Sabadell, announces the reopening of its fundraising process with a new target of €120 million, following the success of its first close.

The firm began raising capital in February 2025 and formalized a first close above €80 million in April through two investment vehicles: Necta Tech, FCR and Necta Investments, SCR. Strong investor demand in this initial phase has allowed the fund to accelerate its capital deployment and position itself ahead of similar vehicles.

Since then, the fund’s management team, led by Ángel García, has analyzed more than 250 venture capital funds in Europe and the United States, already executing investments in 8 leading international funds. These investments have begun to generate significant double-digit gains, from which both current participants and new investors joining the new fundraising phase will benefit. Through these funds, Necta has invested in some of the world’s top technology and artificial intelligence companies, including Antropic, Groq, Invisible Technologies, Klarna, Figure AI, X.AI, among others.

The increase of the target from €100 million to €120 million reflects both the confidence shown by early investors and the attractiveness of Necta Ventures for those seeking diversification and access to the top global managers in the sector. The fund continues its mission to democratize access to venture capital, allowing participation from €100,000, aiming to double or even triple committed capital, in line with historical returns achieved by venture capital.

The project also enjoys the support of Banco Sabadell, which has contributed €15 million to the fund and makes it available to investors through multiple channels, including Sabadell Urquijo Private Banking, specialized in high-net-worth clients.

In this way, Necta Ventures combines the expertise of Banco Sabadell and the management firm Antai Ventures in venture capital, supported by a top-tier team of professionals. It is led by Ángel García as Managing Partner, alongside Miguel Vicente and Eduardo Salvo (Antai Ventures), and Raúl Rodríguez and Xavier Blanquet (Banco Sabadell). The management team brings over 100 years of combined experience in investment and business creation, with access to an international network of contacts built over decades in the venture capital ecosystem.

Ángel García, Managing Partner of Necta Ventures: “The support received in our first close has exceeded all expectations and demonstrates confidence in our value proposition. We have been able to deploy capital with leading managers and are already seeing very positive initial returns. With this new target, we aim to bring in more investors and establish Necta as the leading fund of funds in Europe for accessing global venture capital with the best returns.”

Eduardo Salvo, Managing Partner of Antai, adds: “The success of the first close and the quality of the first 8 investments further reinforce Antai’s commitment and confidence in Necta. These months of hard work validate our unique positioning to secure entry into funds that are historically in the top quartile of global venture capital returns, ensuring unique access and relationships to make Necta Ventures a successful fund.”

The launch of Necta Ventures responds to the growing demand for private asset investment alternatives, particularly in the technology sector. The most innovative and high-growth companies are typically backed by venture capital funds in private stages, when the potential returns are highest. In fact, 75% of today’s unicorns —companies valued at over €1 billion— have been financed by such funds, most of which are not yet public, allowing investors to capture a large part of their growth before reaching the public markets.

Antai Ventures Management currently manages over €200 million in assets and expects to surpass €300 million within the next six months. Antai has co-founded 35 companies, including Glovo, Nemuru, and Wallapop, which have raised over €1.5 billion from leading international funds. Meanwhile, Banco Sabadell’s venture capital division manages over €150 million in assets and has invested in more than 150 companies, including Glovo, Exoticca, Signaturit, and Redpoints. This consolidated experience positions Necta Ventures to offer investors access to the most prominent international managers.

It is also worth noting that Necta Ventures integrates ESG criteria throughout its investment process, from fund selection to portfolio management and internal operations, aiming to align with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly SDG 8 (Decent Work and Economic Growth) and SDG 9 (Industry, Innovation, and Infrastructure).
