About

I’ve spent the last twelve years, across both sides of the Atlantic, building two tech companies and backing early-stage startups at the intersection of emerging technologies and the physical world. Most recently, I’ve led AI Visionaries in partnership with Google, where I worked directly with visionary early-stage deeptech and AI-native founders on accelerating their growth with AI. 70% of AI Visionaries startups went on to secure follow-on funding.Now I’m the Founding Partner at Moonshot Capital, a first-cheque fund backing AI-native founders building for the physical world.I bring my hands-on GTM experience to the founders I back, helping them become global from day one.Community has always been central to my work. Over the past five years, I’ve built a startup community of 6,000+ founders and VCs across Europe, that now connects me directly to outlier founders and their future investors.Apart from Moonshot, I’m also a founding advisor to eurx.ai, supporting the commercialisation of European AI research, and the author of the Female Innovation Index, the largest annual analysis of female-led innovation and venture funding in Europe backed by 35+ key venture ecosystem players (femaleinnovationindex.com).LP enquiries: Capital: moonshotcap.vcMoonshot Weekly (7,000+ VCs & founders): moonshotcapital.substack.comFemale Innovation Index: femalefoundry.coIf you’re building an AI-native business that tackles a hard problem in the physical world, do get in touch!
