Consumer tech company Nothing has successfully concluded its latest community investment round, raising over $8 million and adding more than 5,000 new investors from over 80 countries. This initiative reflects the company’s commitment to involving its community in its growth and development.
From its inception, Nothing has highlighted community engagement in its business model, shaping its product development and maintaining transparency. This recent investment round, which offered community members the opportunity to invest at a $1.3 billion valuation, aims to foster collaboration as the company prepares to innovate in the AI-native consumer technology sector.
Since launching the early access investment round on December 10, Nothing has experienced significant growth in its community, which now boasts nearly 13,000 members. Collectively, these investors have contributed over $16 million since the company’s founding. The current funding round provides an opportunity for community investors to participate actively in Nothing’s future developments, particularly as the company focuses on transforming its hardware infrastructure to support upcoming AI-native operating systems and devices set to launch in 2026.
This funding round follows a substantial $200 million Series C investment secured in September 2025, led by several institutional investors, including Tiger Global, GV, Highland Europe, EQT, and Qualcomm Ventures.
The recent investment round was conducted through Crowdcube and Wefunder, with public access beginning on December 11.
Carl Pei, CEO and Founder of Nothing, stated, “From the very beginning, we set out to build a global tech company rooted in openness, creativity, and collaboration. This investment round wasn’t just about raising money; it was driven by our commitment to our community and bringing them on this journey with us. The new members this investment round has drawn in is testament to how deeply our fans believe in what we’re building, and the momentum behind Nothing right now. Together, we’re reaching new milestones and shaping the future of AI-native consumer tech.”
