The EIC Scaling Club team sat down with Fabrizio Del Maffeo on the sidelines of the recent Tech Tour Growth 50 Europe event in Paris.
As the co-founder and CEO of Axelera AI, Del Maffeo kicked off the interview pitching his company as a 'small, fast-growing Nvidia'.
That's intriguing enough on its own, but the entrepreneur of course told us a bit more about the backstory of Axelera AI, and what the team is busy building over in its HQ in Eindhoven and its many other offices located all across Europe.
In essence, Axelera AI is developing a powerful and efficient AI-native hardware and software platform to accelerate computer vision on edge devices (such as cars, computers, medical devices and whatnot).
As a capital-intensive business, the company has raised close to $65 million in funding according to Dealroom, and is also backed by the European Innovation Council through the EIC Accelerator program.
Del Maffeo also talked about the importance of the EIC (and the EIC Scaling Club) for the European (deep) tech ecosystems, the ability to find enough talent to hire in Europe, events that bring innovators and investors together in person, and what keeps him up at night.
Enjoy the interview!
