The pre-seed round was backed by venture studio EmergentX and angel investors to support the development of tokenised asset products.
Savea is a fintech company that creates regulated investment products based on tokenized high-value assets. Its blockchain infrastructure provides liquidity and scalability for physically scarce assets such as fine wine.
Savea has raised £1.9m in pre-seed funding from backers including venture studio EmergentX and various angel investors. The capital will be used to develop regulated investment products focused on traditionally inaccessible high-value assets. The company plans to use blockchain technology to bring increased liquidity and accessibility to physically scarce items.
The funding follows growing interest in alternative investments that serve as a hedge against market volatility. Savea is preparing to launch its inaugural product, a regulated structure tracking the fine wine market, in the second quarter of 2025.
From the founder
"High-value assets, or 'passion assets,' attract mature investors for their stable growth and benefit as a hedge against market volatility. The problem is that investing in these assets often requires a special relationship and involves lengthy, inefficient processes. Savea’s blockchain-based infrastructure allows investment in an ERC-20 token, backed 100% by physical assets held in reserve, resulting in a highly liquid and scalable alternative to traditional asset ownership."
Sam Mudie
Co-Founder and CEO at Savea
Investor perspective
"Particularly in the context of today’s volatile global equities markets, I immediately saw the value of Savea’s investment infrastructure to tokenize real-world, high-value assets that are not correlated to stocks or other digital assets. Savea is a game-changer for family offices, hedge funds, and crypto investors who want to diversify their portfolios with regulated investment product offerings."
