Pre-Pitch Briefing

George Saliaris-Fasseas

Partner; Former Operating Partner, Big Pi Ventures at Homerun Investments

Check size: Homerun does not publish a George-specific check range or formal stage band. The firm invites technology companies with exceptional growth potential across its stated sectors. Founders should ask directly about vehicle, round and ownership fit rather than relying on Big Pi's separate historical parameters.

Their Thesis

George brings an operator-investor lens shaped by building technology ventures, running Google Greece, leading advertising and media businesses, supporting Big Pi portfolio companies and founding an agricultural business. At Homerun, that experience maps to technology companies with exceptional growth potential across healthcare, industry, mobility and travel, real estate and agriculture. The core value is scaling teams, go-to-market and business development, not a narrow Web3 thesis.

How to Pitch Them

Use Homerun's published investment channel, not a stale Big Pi route. State the problem, product, customer proof, revenue and economics, technology edge, market size, international expansion path, team, round and why Homerun's sector and operating experience matter. Be explicit about whether you need capital, go-to-market help, partnerships, hiring or strategic support.

What Excites Them

Founders tackling a painful, valuable problem; strong people and learning velocity; technology with a credible path to international markets; real customer and distribution insight; teams that welcome operating support; sectors where domain, marketing and partnership expertise can accelerate growth; and businesses with exceptional upside rather than incremental local scope.

What They Pass On

No current personal pass list is public. Weak fit likely includes outreach based on the stale Big Pi title, locally constrained ideas without scalable economics, technology detached from customer urgency, teams unwilling to learn or execute, and pitches that omit commercial validation, expansion logic or the concrete help requested. These are cautious role-based inferences.

Key Frameworks

Operator-investor leverage map

Identify the two or three operating bottlenecks—team, product, distribution, partnerships or internationalization—where investor experience can materially change the growth curve.

Local-root global-scale test

Show how regional talent or cost advantage becomes an internationally competitive product, distribution position and defensible company.

Customer-sleepless-problem test

Prioritize problems urgent enough to disturb customers' current operations and budgets, then prove the solution changes a measurable outcome.

Live-roster affiliation check

When a current firm's own site calls a prior role 'former' and the former firm's roster omits the person, update affiliation instead of preserving a stale title.
