Investment group Northzone has appointed Sam Endacott as its latest London-based partner who will focus on applied and physical AI.
Endacott joins the firm from Mistral and Wayve backer Firstminute Capital and will focus on early-stage investments from seed to Series B.
“I am thrilled to join Northzone as a Partner and continue supporting the best entrepreneurs from seed to growth on both sides of the Atlantic,” said Endacott.
“I wanted to back European founders from a platform that has invested in category winners across every major technology platform shift over the last 30 years.
“Northzone has the multi-stage firepower, transatlantic foundations and a culture that lets me invest wherever the best founders are building.”
At Firstminute Capital Endacott led the seed investment into n8n, which recently announced a strategic SAP-backed round.
He was also an early backer of Storyblok, Stitch, Protex AI and Unleash.
Northzone is a London-headquartered global investor that has backed firms including Spotify and Klarna.
