Graduated top 5%, gained prestigious Studienstiftung scholarship, build up and led a finance related student club and discovered my passion for Entrepreneurship.
My investment thesis is rooted in the potential of technology and its capacity to change the world for the better. While my core interests lies in AI/ML and FinTech, I extend my focus to encompass broader technological innovations. I give special consideration to projects that incorporate sustainability as a value-added proposition, enriching both society and shareholders.
For me, it's always 'Founders First, Market Next.' A rockstar founding team operating in a significant and scalable market amplifies the likelihood of success. Further, the product itself, though essential, comes secondary to a genuine customer need. The key focus here should always be the problem instead of the solution.
I aim to develop the European startup ecosystem, with a particular affection for the German market. I believe in the latent potential here and believe that its crucial for Europe to stay on the forefront of innovation to remain competitive in the long run.
I am particularly drawn to early-stage startups, from pre-seed to Series A. This is a critical period where strategic guidance and support can significantly impact a company's development. My goal is to partner with daring founders from the beginning, helping them bring their brightest ideas to life.
