Hydra Horizon® & Partners

Who We Are

Partners in Conviction

With €1.38 billion in assets under management, we’re not a traditional investment house. We are a team of operators and builders. We seek to partner with visionary founders in sectors we believe are non-negotiable for the future: AI, renewable energy, secure networks, and transformative education.

Our edge isn’t just capital; it’s deep sectoral expertise. We’ve built the systems we now invest in, offering practical, hands-on partnership.

We see the connections others miss—how AI impacts education, and how secure data powers energy. Our integrated approach drives compounding value.
