Semble Ventures is an investment fund that operates across early-stage technology sectors, placing a strong focus on industries such as Media, Business Solutions, IoT (& Wearables), Robotics, and Consumer markets. They devote their investments to supporting innovative startups predominantly in these areas. The fund facilitates a range of investment stages, including Pre-Seed, Seed, and Series A rounds. Semble Ventures has positioned itself to be particularly engaged with companies that are on the brink of significant growth and are seeking capital injections to accelerate their development. They demonstrate flexibility in investment size, with a minimum threshold of $100,000 and a maximum cap of $10,000,000. Their 'sweet spot' for investment, however, tends to be around the $1,000,000 mark. This indicates a strategic preference to enter into equity positions that are substantial enough to make a meaningful impact while also being considered manageable within the broader portfolio. The founder, Patrick Murphy, brings a wealth of experience from his extensive background in technology, engineering, and venture investing. Since 2014, he has been active in early-stage venture investing across the United States and Europe, bringing his expertise from various technical and business development roles, including work with robotic systems and medical implants, as well as his experience in trend analysis, capital raising, and corporate transactions within the technology, media, and telecom sectors. Patrick's hands-on experience from running a web development agency during his youth in Ireland, to his active venture investment role, helps steer Semble Ventures toward opportunities that promise technological innovation and market disruption.
