Ioconic

Ioconic operates as a venture studio, focusing on establishing, funding, and scaling companies that are developing the next generation of consumer experiences. It provides hands-on operational support through an in-house team of product, engineering, and go-to-market specialists. The firm's strategy involves collaborating with entrepreneurs and leveraging its partnerships with investors and technology platforms to foster the growth of digital businesses.

Initially founded in 2021 by Jamie Lewis, David Sciama, and Rob Sciama, Ioconic began as a turn-key solutions provider for brands entering the digital asset and NFT space. In August 2021, the company raised £1.1 million ($1.5 million) in a seed funding round led by the venture capital firm Kenetic. This investment was intended to expand its partnerships and internal resources. The company has since evolved its model to that of a broader venture studio. Based in London, England, Ioconic invests in pre-seed and seed-stage companies, with typical investments ranging from €100k to €1.5M. Its areas of investment include Artificial Intelligence (AI), Blockchain, and Gaming.
