Our fund has invested in HIVED, a UK-based next-generation Delivery Startup

Marunouchi Innovation Partners Co., Ltd. through Marunouchi Climate Tech Growth Fund L.P. (collectively “MIP”), has invested in HIVED Limited (“HIVED”), a UK-based startup providing next- generation delivery services.

HIVED has developed a proprietary delivery platform that streamlines logistics operations while offering a seamless and user-friendly experience for all stakeholders—shippers, drivers, and end consumers.

By integrating electric vehicles with AI-powered route optimization technology, HIVED achieves both environmental sustainability and operational efficiency, further enabling clear differentiation in the market.

As e-commerce and omnichannel retail continue to grow in the post-COVID era, demand for faster, high-quality, and decarbonized delivery from both shippers and consumers is seeing similar growth. In this evolving market, HIVED’s innovative and superior solution is well positioned to further expand its customer base.


Murvah Iqbal, HIVED Co-Founder and CEO:
“Bringing Marunouchi Innovation Partners on board marks an exciting step forward for HIVED. As we prepare to scale rapidly in the coming years, their deep expertise and global perspective will be instrumental in helping us deliver on our mission. We’re confident that this partnership and investment will accelerate our ability to build an even more tech-enabled, sustainable delivery network.”

Mathias Krieger, HIVED Co-Founder and CPO:
“At HIVED, we’ve built a proprietary delivery system from the ground up — one that’s designed to be radically more efficient and tech-driven. With Marunouchi Innovation Partners joining us, we’re not just gaining capital, but a strategic partner who understands the power of technology to transform logistics. Their support will help us continue pushing the boundaries of what’s possible as we scale our platform across new geographies.”

Ichiro Miyoshi, MIP CEO / CIO:
“We are delighted to make our first European investment through our partnership with HIVED. In the growing European e-commerce market, we believe HIVED will play an important role in driving both efficiency and environmental sustainability. We look forward to supporting HIVED’s further growth and geographic expansion by leveraging our global network.”
