A top‑tier early‑stage deep tech VC backing scientific founders building companies at the frontier of technology.

In just a few years, the firm has quietly built one of the most exciting pre‑seed platforms in Europe. The team focuses on commercialising breakthrough research from leading universities, supporting PhDs and technical founders as they transform world‑class research into venture‑scale companies. From robotics and AI to biotech and advanced materials, their portfolio spans technologies tackling some of the most ambitious problems in science and industry.

The fund has already invested in dozens of startups across Europe, often as the first institutional investor.

The role will involve significant engagement across continental Europe, developing networks with technical founders, research institutions, and startup ecosystems. The team operates much like the start‑ups they back: fast‑moving, ambitious, and hands‑on. With a lean team and growing platform, new joiners are given meaningful ownership early.
