About Eileen Burbidge

Eileen Burbidge is a Founding Partner at Passion Capital, the leading early-stage technology venture fund in Europe based in London, where she co-founded the firm in 2008 after working at Apple, Sun, Yahoo!, and Skype. Her investment thesis focuses on early-stage technology companies, particularly in fintech, with a geographic emphasis on London and the UK. Typical check sizes range from $100,000 to $5.0 million, with a sweet spot around $1.5 million, and she often leads investments rather than following. Notable portfolio companies include fintech giants Monzo, Tide, and GoCardless, which were incubated at White Bear Yard, a co-working space she co-created. Fortune Magazine dubbed her “The Queen of British VC” due to her influential role in London’s venture capital ecosystem. Burbidge has also served as the UK Prime Minister’s Business Advisory Group member and the Treasury’s FinTech Envoy, reflecting her distinctive focus on inclusive tech and policy engagement.
