Resolve Ventures

Resolve Ventures is launching a €50 million fund focused on novel climatetech companies at the seed stage in Ireland. The firm targets ventures addressing climate and biodiversity challenges, with an emphasis on high-touch support and corporate connectivity alongside capital deployment.

The firm is supported by the European Investment Fund, the NTMA Ireland Strategic Investment Fund, and Enterprise Ireland, under the Irish Innovation Seed Fund programme. This combination of European and national investment entities anchors the firm’s first fund.

Based on available information, Resolve Ventures makes direct seed-stage investments into Irish climatetech companies through its own venture fund. There is no public indication of commitments to external venture funds as a limited partner.

Resolve Ventures operates as a venture capital firm — specifically a private equity asset manager — not a family office. Its structure is that of an independent fund manager raising capital from institutional limited partners, although its anchor investors are development finance institutions.

Resolve Ventures is one of the managers operating under the Irish Innovation Seed Fund programme, which was established to increase availability of risk capital for Irish start-ups. Its fund launch is explicitly tied to this national policy initiative, with Enterprise Ireland, ISIF, and the EIF as key stakeholders.
