Greek Evercurious VC Deep Tech Fund
Evercurious VC launches a new fund bridging Greece with European deep tech hubs
Based in Athens and investing across Europe, Evercurious VC is committed to empowering purpose-driven deep tech founders as they take their first steps. The fund connects Greece to Western Europe’s thriving innovation hubs – such as Zurich, Munich, and Berlin – fostering a vibrant exchange of ideas, talent, and opportunities.
Founded by Alex Vamvakas and George Georgiadis, engineers-turned-investors with a shared passion for technology, the duo recently returned to Greece after successful careers abroad, convinced of the country’s untapped potential as an emerging European technology hub. Their journeys began in Greece but took them to Switzerland and Germany, where they refined their skills and deepened their belief in science-driven entrepreneurship.
Alex Vamvakas, with experience at CERN and Fairway Asset Management, brings relentless curiosity and a focus on innovation. George Georgiadis spent over a decade at Volkswagen’s headquarters leading transformative projects in R&D and corporate technology strategy. Together, they embody Evercurious VC’s ethos of knowledge, innovation, and impact.
We’re inspired by the talent and ingenuity we see in Greece.
We are supporting Greek deep tech founders to adopt an extrovert mindset by connecting them with European deep tech hubs, which we believe is essential for scaling internationally.
At the same time, we support European startups in accessing the market of Southeastern Europe and tapping into Greece’s exceptional talent pool. In this way, we foster a culture of cross-border collaboration and aim to maximise its benefits for our founders.
George explains.
With an initial capital of €12.5 million, Evercurious VC targets pre-seed and seed-stage startups, aiming to build a portfolio of approximately 20 companies. The fund focuses on ventures at the intersection of hardware and software, strongly emphasising research-driven startups, such as university spin-offs, bridging science with business.
Deep tech is where the hardest problems are tackled and the greatest opportunities lie.
We seek purpose-driven founders who address global challenges by developing defensible technology. They are positioned to attract top talent and build resilient companies while unlocking vast, untapped markets.
Alex notes
Evercurious VC is backed by the Hellenic Development Bank of Investments (HDBI) as an anchor investor and is planning a second closing for 2025, targeting €20 million. The fund’s first investments will soon be announced, showcasing its commitment to fostering a vibrant deep tech ecosystem in Greece and beyond.
