About Eric Burdier

Eric Burdier is the Founding Partner and General Partner of Axeleo Capital, an early-stage venture capital firm he co-founded in Lyon in 2017 after launching the Axeleo accelerator in 2013. He invests primarily in European B2B technology startups from seed through Series B, with a focused thesis on sectors including cybersecurity, enterprise software, PropTech, FinTech, and GreenTech. His typical check size ranges from $1 million to $3 million, with a sweet spot around $1.5 million, and he often leads rounds rather than following.
