Aristos Doxiadis has experience investing with Commercial Capital from 1995-1999 and with Notos Associates from 2000 to present. He has reviewed over 500 prospects but only invested in 15 companies, investing primarily in later stage companies rather than early stage startups. Greek venture capitalists are hesitant to invest in early stage Greek startups due to the small domestic market, limitations of founding teams, and difficulty exiting investments. Startups often fail due to lack of a great idea, brilliant founder, viable product, strong execution, or real users.
