Who We Are

Monte Carlo Capital was founded in 2009 by former senior investment banker turned angel investor, and later VC, Ian Sosso. Ian initially built Monte Carlo Capital to invest his own capital. He was the lead investor in more than 50 deals and syndicates, and was named Best European Angel Investor by EBAN in 2019.

Building on this decade of hands-on experience, MCC evolved from a lead investor into a value-added co-investor, investing alongside leading VCs to scale industry-defining early-stage companies. MCC launched Fund I in 2023 and will start investing out of fund II early 2026.
