Buenavista doubles down on geospatial AI with €10.5m investment in Xoople

Buenavista Equity Partners has deepened its commitment to geospatial artificial intelligence pioneer Xoople, investing a total of €10.5m through its Ventures and Infrastructure funds.

The capital was committed as part of a €34m round led by Spain’s CDTI and AXIS, the venture capital arm of the state-owned ICO.

This latest funding round, which closed on 18 June, brings Xoople’s total financing to €115m. The company is developing EarthAI, an integrated system that merges satellite constellations with AI-powered analytics to monitor physical changes on the Earth’s surface. It aims to deliver global, AI-ready datasets to help solve large-scale, real-world challenges.

Buenavista was Xoople’s first private investor in 2021 and has since continued backing the business across multiple strategies. “We are very pleased to strengthen our position and support Xoople in this new phase, convinced that their proposal has a highly promising future,” said Francisco Marín, Senior Advisor and Partner at Buenavista Ventures and a member of Xoople’s board.

Marín added that Xoople is a strategic partner in Microsoft’s Planetary Computing initiative, which combines satellite infrastructure with Microsoft’s Planetary Computer Pro platform. This collaboration enables large-scale processing of geospatial data using AI to generate actionable insights for sectors including climate, infrastructure, and urban development.

Founded in Spain with global ambitions, Xoople is building the next generation of Earth observation technology, offering continuous data streams for pattern recognition, change detection, and predictive analysis. Its mission is to empower organisations and communities to make faster, safer, and more informed decisions.

The investment underscores Buenavista’s active presence in Spain’s lower mid-market segment. The firm’s Ventures portfolio now includes 19 companies, including Omniscope, acquired earlier this year.
