Oxx was founded in 2017 by Richard Anton and Mikael Johnsson.[3] Anton served as Chair of the British Private Equity and Venture Capital Association (BVCA) in 2011.[4] The firm focuses on the “go-to-market fit” stage, supporting software companies that have validated their product and are building scalable commercial models.[5]

In 2020, Oxx announced the close of its first fund; public sources report totals around $133 million / €122.9 million.[6][7] Investors included British Patient Capital.[8]

In 2023, Oxx announced the close of its second fund at $190 million (€173 million), backed by institutional and private investors across Europe and North America.[1][2][5] .
