Benoit Wirz, a founding partner at Brighteye Ventures, invests primarily in early-stage (pre-seed to Series A) European edtech and future-of-work startups that use technology to help people learn and grow, with check sizes ranging from €200,000 to €4 million for core investments and up to €5 million total. His portfolio includes notable companies such as Epic!, Ornikar, TeachFX, IronHack, and ZenEducate, which span consumer learning platforms, corporate training tools, and school operating systems. Wirz’s distinctive thesis focuses on the “HumanOS” intersection of learning, entertainment, and creativity, backing startups that expand human potential rather than merely digitizing existing curricula, with particular interest in bridging talent gaps in climate, healthcare, and construction.
