My story, passion and motivation.

I am an entrepreneur and investor based in Munich, with a passion for founding and scaling ventures that make a difference. My previous company, e-bot7, an AI-driven platform for automating enterprise sales and customer service, was acquired by LivePerson Inc. (NASDAQ) in a $60M deal.

In my role as Managing Director at LivePerson Inc., I led a team of 130 people across EMEA, driving the rollout and integration of generative AI products for major enterprises. At e-bot7, which I co-founded in 2016, we scaled to over 130 employees across five European offices, raised $10M from top-tier investors, and received more than 30 awards, including recognition as one of Europe’s top 10 AI companies.

Beyond my entrepreneurial journey, I actively invest in early-stage tech companies, venture capital, and private equity funds, with a focus on innovative solutions that drive meaningful impact. I also mentor and coach founders, guiding them through different growth stages.

My commitment to sustainability extends beyond the tech world. I am actively involved in the AMES Foundation, an initiative dedicated to conservation efforts in Southern Africa, including establishing secure zones, rehabilitation centers, and equipping anti-poaching units with cutting-edge technology to protect endangered species.

Recognized as part of the Forbes 30 Under 30 Europe list in 2020, I remain driven by the belief that technology and disruptive innovations are crucial to creating a more sustainable future. By sharing my experiences, I hope to contribute to building a better world for generations to come.
