Founder Do's

Pitch early as a seed lead candidate — fund is sized to anchor €2M–€5M rounds
Highlight technical depth; partners will read the science and expect founders to defend it
Emphasize Southern European origin or strong regional presence to fit geographic thesis
Prepare for substantive technical diligence, not just business-model review
Treat them as first call before approaching pan-European generalists

Founder Don'ts

Don't pitch as lead if based outside Portugal, Spain, or France — confirmed primary markets
Don't expect a quick pass on science; both GPs have physics degrees and will dig deep
Don't conflate this with a generalist fund — pure software plays are out of thesis
