about

Hi there, my name is Loïc (pronounced /lɔ.ik/). My work is at the intersection of venture, technology, politics, and media.

I'm a venture partner at Verb Ventures, an early-stage fund investing in B2B marketplaces and global trade infrastructure.

I previously co-founded DearMP, an AI platform built to cut the email processing burden on MPs' offices in half.

I've spent the better part of the last decade in and around UK politics.

I'm interested in institutional design, re-industrialising the UK, and the way technology reshapes the structures people actually live inside — parliaments, supply chains, energy systems, cities.

I run the London Schvitz Club, a curated sauna community for founders, investors, and people building in London. Come Schvitz with me.

I'm also leading a campaign to build a statue of King Athelstan, the first king of all England, to mark the 1100th anniversary of England's founding in 927.
