Zurich-based Namespace, a developer platform that offers fast coding, build, and test environments across Mac, Windows, and Linux, today announced its €37 million ($42 million) Series B to accelerate product development and expand its data centers
The round, closed only seven months after their Series A funding, was led by Scale Venture Partners, with participation from 20VC, NEA, Essence, Burst Capital, and angel investors including Olivier Pomel (CEO of Datadog) – bringing the total raised to €58 million ($65 million). The expansion comes as demand surges, with Namespace’s total revenue growing 8x over the past 12 months.
“I started Namespace because I believe developers deserve better. At Google, I saw how much great tools & infrastructure changes the way developers work. Outside of a handful of companies, that still doesn’t exist,” says Hugo Santos, Founder and CEO of Namespace. “My vision is to make that experience the default for every fast moving company. We’re starting where developers and their agents spend the entire day: coding and CI.”
Namespace’s Series B comes amid continued investment in European developer tooling and infrastructure in 2026.
EU-Startups has covered approximately €160 million in funding across ten comparable or adjacent companies this year, including €61.5 million for Belfast-based software supply-chain platform Cloudsmith, €31 million for Cambridge-based software engineering company Undo, €21 million for Paris-based orchestration platform Kestra, and €4 million for Helsinki-based AI-native CI/CD startup Avrea.
Switzerland has also contributed to this activity, with Zurich-based Rapidata raising €7.2 million for AI development infrastructure and Pfäffikon-based AI Infrastructure Capital AG launching with around €16 million for compute capacity.
“The use of agents in software development challenges the tradeoff assumptions made by prior generations of tooling,” adds Javier Redondo, Partner at Scale Venture Partners. “Namespace is the platform that can meet the demand for speed and scalability, while delivering the same reliability and security that engineers have grown accustomed to.”
Founded in 2022, Namespace offers fast coding, build, and test environments across Mac, Windows, and Linux. The company was founded by former Google Principal Engineer Hugo Santos.
While hyperscalers like AWS and GCP optimise for production workloads, Namespace says they optimises for coding, build, and test environments. It designs and deploys its own server racks worldwide, then builds their suite of products on that engineering foundation.
Namespace is already working with over 1000 organisations including SpaceXAI, Ramp, Framer, ElevenLabs, Vanta, Bilt. and Sierra.
“Namespace is the best dev infrastructure tool I’ve used in years. We run everything from our CI to Oz, our cloud agent platform, on Namespace, and I could not recommend it enough,” says Aloke Desai, Head of Product Engineering, Warp
According to the company, some of the most important interactions today happen on an iPhone or a Macbook. Yet almost every infrastructure provider skips Mac, which means a developer’s agent, trying to build an iOS or macOS app for the App Store, has nowhere to build or test it. Coding agents need a Mac at any scale with all the required iOS and macOS developer tooling. This has led to a demand for Namespace’s Mac environments.
With the new funding, Namespace will expand its data centre locations, including its fleet of Mac hardware, and open offices in San Francisco and New York City.
