Your mission
The RoleLyceum is building critical European GPU infrastructure, and that takes capital - equity, debt, and everything in between.

- Structure and negotiate term sheets, credit facilities, and co-investment arrangements
- Own the data room, investor materials, and due diligence process for all capital raises
- Monitor capital markets for relevant financing opportunities, benchmark Lyceum's capital structure against peers, and advise on optimal timing and instruments
- Support grant and subsidy applications (e.g. IPCEI, EU Innovation Fund) where relevant
