Hoxton Ventures has confirmed its active participation in NVIDIA‘s landmark £2 billion investment aimed at reinforcing the United Kingdom’s position as a global artificial intelligence leader. This collaboration seeks to expand both capital access and computing resources for British entrepreneurs, enabling them to develop the next generation of transformative AI companies.
Through this strategic alliance, NVIDIA is partnering with leading investors including Hoxton Ventures, Accel, Air Street Capital, Balderton, and Phoenix Court. Together, they will provide crucial funding to accelerate the UK AI ecosystem, addressing historic challenges such as limited access to supercomputing power, restricted venture capital availability outside London, and gaps between academia and entrepreneurship. The investment will directly benefit startups operating in innovation hubs across London, Oxford, Cambridge, Manchester, and other key regions.

“Hoxton was founded on the belief that world-class companies can emerge from Europe and the UK has the ingredients to be a global leader in AI,” said Hussein Kanji, Founder and Managing Partner at Hoxton Ventures. “By working with NVIDIA and other top investors, we’re bridging global scale with local knowledge to ensure that Britain’s brightest founders have the capital, compute, and infrastructure they need to build globally transformative businesses.”
This partnership builds upon Hoxton’s decade-long track record of supporting ambitious UK and European founders at the forefront of AI and deeptech. The UK hosts a growing number of companies pioneering next-generation AI, novel computing architectures, robotics, and advanced materials. Notable examples include CuspAI, Machenta, Milvus Advanced, and Universal Quantum, many of which have spun out from prestigious institutions such as Imperial College London, Oxford University, and the University of Sussex.

Moreover, UK-founded startup Peptone is already collaborating with NVIDIA to develop an AI capable of predicting the structure of disordered proteins a previously elusive area in biology that traditional experimental methods have struggled to address. By concentrating on deep scientific breakthroughs with tangible real-world applications, Hoxton Ventures has solidified its reputation as a trusted partner for the UK’s most promising AI entrepreneurs.
Overall, this initiative not only fuels the growth of British AI startups but also strengthens the UK’s global competitive edge in cutting-edge technology, ensuring that its innovators receive the resources, expertise, and support necessary to scale internationally.
