Entrepreneur in Residence

Phira Ventures is a Lisbon- and New York–based venture studio that partners with exceptional talent to build companies that deliver tangible value. We don’t just invest capital. We co-build ventures hands-on with founders we deeply believe in.

The Entrepreneur in Residence (EIR) track is a unique opportunity for someone who’s already shown they can operate at a high level - in academics, entrepreneurship, sports, or any high-performance environment - and is now ready to channel that energy into building a venture from scratch.

You’ll start by leading high-leverage projects inside the studio. If there’s a fit, you’ll step into the founder seat - with capital, a team behind you, and meaningful equity.

This is not a job. It’s the beginning of a founder journey.
