Kerry Baldwin, co-founder and Managing Partner of IQ Capital, invests in early-stage deep-tech companies (Seed to Series A) with check sizes typically ranging from £0.5m to £1.5m at seed, and up to £30m for follow-ons in outperformers. Her firm focuses on sectors including generative AI, quantum hardware, cybersecurity, fintech infrastructure, robotics, synthetic biology, and advanced materials, prioritizing companies with defensible intellectual property and breakthrough technologies rooted in PhD research. Notable portfolio companies include Thought Machine (cloud banking), Nyobolt (ultra-fast battery charging), and Speechmatics (speech recognition), with over 20 exits to giants like Google, Apple, and Oracle. Baldwin’s distinctive thesis centers on identifying “dragons”—single investments that generate returns covering the entire fund—by backing IP-rich, globally ambitious founders at the intersection of science and real-world impact.
