bio
grew up in Stuttgart and spent the summers in Romania
current
first hire at a new European component manufacturing network
we acquire existing components manufacturers, predominantly in injection moulding, and we partner with new hardware startups to produce for them as they scale parts volumes
my work spans across our acquisition processes, the setting up of our greenfield production capacity and the building out of the team
previously
talent investing @ EF. (in)famous for monologuing
alongside investing I brought in $M in partnerships with frontier labs, revived and ran EF's scout network across Europe and hosted hackathons, talks & retreats with OpenAI, Anthropic, Palantir, ElevenLabs, Lovable, Scale AI, Granola, Strala, Creandum, Northzone, and Lakestar
before EF, I did my undergrad in Economics & Management (aka "easy & manageable") at Oxford, where I mostly played football, ran Oxford's incubator and occasionally finished an essay before the day it was due
