Platform and ecosystem lead, Metavallon VC

Henry Umunnakwe is Platform and Ecosystem Lead at Metavallon VC, where he works closely with founders, supporting them beyond capital through partnerships, community building, and access to the wider ecosystem. Metavallon VC is an early-stage fund backing entrepreneurs building across areas such as deep tech, AI, and enterprise software.

He is also the founder of Athens Tech Circle, an entrepreneurship intelligence platform connecting founders, investors, and creatives, and helping make the local ecosystem more accessible and collaborative. Through this work, he brings together people across different industries to share ideas, opportunities, and practical experiences of building.

With a background in engineering and entrepreneurship, Henry is particularly interested in how technology, culture, and community intersect. His work increasingly explores the connection between innovation and creative industries, including music, and how ecosystems can better support emerging talent across Europe and Africa.
