Building Ventures, Empowering Founders

As a serial entrepreneur and venture builder, I've spent over 15 years at the intersection of innovation, capital, and cross-border growth. My journey includes co-founding whatchado (scaled to 6M+ users globally), leading startup services at the Austrian Federal Economic Chamber (supporting 5,000+ founders), and serving as Managing Partner at vendevio (driving 60% revenue growth through strategic expansion).

Beyond building my own ventures, I'm deeply committed to empowering the next generation of entrepreneurs. As a lecturer at FHWien University, I teach PE/VC and Entrepreneurship to 100+ students per semester. As a keynote speaker, I've addressed audiences at World Economic Forum, SXSW, and TEDx. As an author, I've shared insights through "How to Start-up" and "Sammy und das Geheimnis der Goldmünzen."

My approach is practical and results-driven: I don't just advise—I roll up my sleeves and work alongside founders to navigate complex challenges, secure capital, and build sustainable growth strategies. Whether you're seeking your first investment, expanding into new markets, or scaling operations, I bring real-world experience, a powerful network, and a proven track record of turning potential into performance.
