Finistere Aotearoa Fund is a New Zealand-based agritech-focused venture capital fund created by Silicon Valley's Finistere Ventures. The fund received NZ$14 million from Elevate NZ and targets Series A and B investment in agricultural technology companies.
Leveraging Finistere Ventures' global agritech network and New Zealand's world-leading agricultural innovation ecosystem, the fund bridges Silicon Valley capital and expertise with NZ's unique strengths in pastoral farming, food production, and agricultural science.
New Zealand's position as a global leader in agricultural exports and farm technology innovation makes it a natural testbed for agritech solutions, and Finistere Aotearoa capitalizes on this by backing NZ companies ready to scale internationally.
