Hi, I'm Dario. Recognised as one of the industry’s “40 Rising Stars under 40” by Venture Capital Journal, I’m passionate about investing in and supporting the emerging VC manager ecosystem.

I have reviewed 1400+ funds, investing into six top-tier emerging fund managers. I previously served as a Principal at Anthemis Group, a leading fintech investor with $1.5bn AUM. There, I co-led fund investments, co-developed a unique 'embedded finance' media fund, and also invested into early-stage fintech in partnership with BBVA.

Notable funds I have invested in include Alexis Ohanian’s Seven Seven Six (co-founder of Reddit: NYSE:RDDT), Jeffrey Katzenberg and Anthony Saleh’s WndrCo (Katzenberg: former Chairman of Walt Disney Studios and co-founder of DreamWorks; Saleh: longtime manager of Kendrick Lamar), and the Perplexity F7 Fund, among others.

My experience has granted me deep industry insights, which I’ve shared as a guest lecturer at the University of Oxford Saïd Business School’s Entrepreneurship Centre and as a panelist at the Oxford and Harvard Founder & Funders series. I currently serve on the LP Selection Committee for the Obuntu Foundation, focused on supporting Africa-focused emerging managers, and as an LP mentor for Europe's first VC accelerator, the Mountside Accelerator.

Additionally, I have previously served on the LP Selection Committee for ALLOCATE, Europe's leading tech VC community.
