Petar Petrov.

Chief AI Officer at Eleven Ventures, advising 70+ VC-backed startups across Europe and the US. Founder of Soul & Silicon, a boutique AI consultancy turning AI from buzzword into competitive advantage.

I help leaders and teams put AI to work — practically, and on their terms.

I'm fascinated by intelligence — biological and artificial. My background bridges finance and neuropsychology (City University of New York), which shapes how I think about decision-making, both human and machine.

Through Soul & Silicon, I work with leadership teams to turn AI from a buzzword into a real competitive advantage — through hands-on, practical training that changes how your people think and operate. To date I've delivered executive AI training to 250+ business leaders across Bulgaria and Europe.

In 2024, the Presidency of Bulgaria invited me to lecture on artificial intelligence. I'm the author of Artificial Intelligence: Soul & Silicon — a book that makes AI understandable for non-technical audiences.
