About

Axeleo Capital is a French early-stage Venture Capital firm with a unique DNA: it was born from the spin-off of a B2B Accelerator (Axeleo) founded by successful entrepreneurs from Lyon. Today, it has evolved into a multi-strategy management company with ~€300M in assets, operating three distinct "Practice" areas: Enterprise Software (B2B), Proptech, and a new Green Tech Industry division. They are particularly famous for their "Operator-to-Founder" approach (heritage of the accelerator) and for being one of the few VCs capable of financing the "First Factory" of industrial startups.
