Biography

Ms. Litzie Maarek is a Founding Partner of EduCapital. She also serves as a Board Member at Open Digital Education. She has ten years of experience in financing and investment. She began her career as a manager in Crédit Agricole CIB's Leveraged Finance team focusing on mid and large-cap operations. She then joined Strategic Investment Fund (later integrated into Bpifrance), where she led several mid-cap LBO and growth capital transactions. Within Bpifrance, she later took part in the creation and development of the "Large Venture" fund, dedicated to late-stage venture capital investments.
