Chief Compliance Officer
KaristaCheck size: Karista does not publish a single standard current check-size range across its funds.
The official roster identifies Agathe Biard as Chief Compliance Officer. This is a fund team or operating role; no direct investment mandate or personal signing authority is inferred.
At firm level, Karista is aligned with lead or co-lead early rounds for European technology and healthcare companies, working closely with founders from inception through scaling. This is firm-level guidance, not an invented personal preference.
No personal pass list is public. Opportunities outside Karista's stated stages, sectors, geography or team criteria should be treated as lower fit rather than a confirmed personal rejection rule.
Lead with founder-market fit, the specific problem, differentiated product or technology, evidence of demand, market size, round stage and why the opportunity matches Karista's published focus. Address the role of Chief Compliance Officer without assuming individual check authority.
