Founding Team

Welcome to Auxilia, where our founding team brings together decades of rich experience from the public and private sectors. Our backgrounds are diverse, encompassing global diplomacy, policy-making, and venture capital.

We served and advised world leaders in crises, raised capital from leading institutions and endowments, invested in half a dozen unicorns, directly managed organizations running $1 billion a year, and recruited and built several high-achieving teams all over the world.

We recruit humble and ambitious talent from across the greater Commonwealth who choose to live and work in their beautiful home countries, but want exposure to frontier technologies and U.S. startup culture.

We built the Business Operations firm we wish we had when we started our careers. Then, we assembled a team of the best operators and support staff—many of whom we trained and collaborated with around the world over the years—as Auxilians and advisors. Today, we leverage Auxilians ourselves across our latest ventures.

Andrea, Hugo, and Virginia
