Octopus is a group of entrepreneurially-minded businesses – each one built on the belief that people deserve better. We offer customers smart, simple solutions that leave them feeling totally taken care of. Because being trusted by our customers makes us irreplaceable.

Founded in 2000, today we’re one of the UK’s fastest-growing companies, managing more than £8.5 billion on behalf of retail and institutional investors. We’re also building the UK’s most highly-rated energy supply business, taking on thousands of new customers every day. And being employee-owned means Octopus people are motivated by building better futures, rather than short-term profits.

We inspire entrepreneurship, by championing the innovation, resilience and the passion that is essential to building great businesses. We’re invested in the people, ideas and industries that will help to change the world.

Octopus Investments is part of the Octopus Group, which incorporates Octopus Energy, Octopus Healthcare, Octopus Investments, Octopus Property, Octopus Ventures, Octopus Renewables and Octopus Wealth.
