Eric

Entrepreneur in Residence

Eric is Entrepreneur in Residence at BoxOne Ventures, bringing nearly two decades of experience building and leading in the world of low latency trading. He began his career at Boehringer Ingelheim before joining Vigilant Global, where he helped build the firm into a leader in the space. Following its acquisition by DRW, he became Director of NX, the firm’s network and research group, and later a partner.

Over 18 years at Vigilant and DRW, Eric pioneered technologies that reshaped the trading landscape, always guided by the belief that nothing is impossible, there is always a solution. Drawn to trading for its game-like nature and constant evolution, Eric applies that mindset broadly, thriving on curiosity, problem-solving, and connection. He is most proud of the world-class teams he built and the friendships forged, especially with Josh and Arv, now reunited at BoxOne.

Eric holds a Computer Science degree with honours from UQAM. He is married to his high school sweetheart and is the proud father of a young daughter.
