Senior🎓
Top SchoolMike Semenov is a founder and investment director based in London with a decade of experience at the intersection of technology, finance and deep research. He combines hands-on technical roots from early software and research roles with venture and family office investing across the US and Europe, evaluating opportunities in VC, PE and real estate. A PhD-trained molecular physicist who applied machine learning in his research at UCL, he translates rigorous academic methods into practical diligence and product-minded assessment of startups. Mike has held operational roles from building CRM and OMS features at Deutsche Bank to co-founding startups and advising VC firm Decacorn as Geek in Residence. He’s comfortable toggling between code, data models and boardroom-level strategy, and is now building a stealth venture that benefits from his blend of scientific rigor and capital allocation experience. An understated but recurring strength is his ability to bridge technical complexity and commercial decision-making across diverse domains.
