APEIRON PARTNERS BACKS THE NEXT GENERATION OF VENTURE CAPITAL MANAGERS

Our approach

Apeiron Partners is a new fund of venture funds started in 2021 by Christian Angermayer’s Apeiron Investment Group and Nick Nigam.

We invest in access-constrained, remarkable fund managers, who have a high conviction approach and bold thesis for the future. Our core focus is emerging early-stage venture funds, but we also construct selected positions in top performing established funds.

We believe innovation-driven entrepreneurship is accelerating in communities across the world and are therefore geo-agnostic in our approach. We are committed to diversity and inclusion in our portfolio and building long-term partnerships with our managers across fund cycles.

Venture capital has outperformed every major asset class in recent years – and we expect it to remain the best asset class going forward.

— Nick Nigam, MANAGING PARTNER AND CO-FOUNDER OF APEIRON PARTNERS
