Frequently asked questions

Who runs investment decisions at VSP Capital?

Jean-Philippe Boige, the firm's founder and CEO, oversees all investment decisions. VSP Capital operates under a solo-GP structure, meaning Boige is the primary decision-maker on commitments, portfolio construction, and board representation. This structure is not uncommon among emerging managers in Europe and concentrates fiduciary responsibility in a single named operator.

Where does VSP Capital typically invest geographically?

The firm concentrates on France and Western Europe, with public deal records pointing to a Paris-anchored sourcing model. Portfolio companies such as Alsid and DiliTrust were both founded in France. VSP Capital will evaluate cross-border opportunities in adjacent European technology hubs when the founding team and market align with its thesis.

What investment stages does VSP Capital target?

VSP Capital focuses on Seed to Series A rounds. The firm writes initial checks at formation and early institutional stages, typically as a lead or co-lead investor. Its known portfolio includes companies backed at seed stage, reflecting a preference for entering at the earliest point of institutional capital formation.

Which sectors does VSP Capital actively pursue?

Enterprise software, cybersecurity, fintech, digital health, and applied AI form the firm's core sector map. Documented investments include cybersecurity platform Alsid and AI-driven legal-tech company DiliTrust. The firm does not publicly disclose explicit negative sector screens.

Does VSP Capital co-invest alongside other firms?

Yes. VSP Capital participates in syndicates alongside other European seed-stage funds, though it does not advertise a formal co-investment club or LP co-investment vehicle. Its deal structures suggest a willingness to collaborate with peer managers on rounds where sector expertise or geographic reach is complementary.
