About me

He is a former Partner and MD of Entrepreneur First and has worked with companies from Singapore to San Francisco raising more than $100M in early funding. He co-initiated EU Inc, a pan-european grassroots movement to unify the startup ecosystem, backed by 600 VCs and 5000+ founders like Patrick Collison, Paul Graham, Ilkka Paananen that created worldwide media attention and awareness on EU level. EU Inc delivered an industry blueprint to the EU Commission on how a modern entity for modern Entrepreneurs in Europe should look like. The newly formed EU commission has agreed on the implementation on such an entity and framework.

My organisation

EU Inc is a pan-european initiative supported by a coalition of Europe's most successful entrepreneurs and investors to create a single pan-European startup entity. This legal structure aims to streamline and standardize the process of founding, operating, and scaling startups across the European Union and its establishment became part of the newly formed EU Commission.
