Active angel investor across Europe & North America in Angel, Seed, Series A and Series B rounds across a broad group of sectors: games, AR, AI, esports, adtech, streaming, music, food & drink, SAAS, ecommerce, fintech, digital media and blockchain. My key strategy is to back great founders who are very ambitious with strong execution skills. I will invest early and happy to be first money in or committed and help founders to round out their funding rounds with investors who bring value add. I can help founders i back with my network of investors for future funding rounds in addition to insight on strategy, recruitment, partners, etc.
Most of my dealflow is inbound to me through the many relationships I have built up through the years especially founders I have invested in. I will syndicate all deals i invest in where the founders provide the allocation for a syndicate. I aim to invest alongside other smart and experienced angel investors and VC's.
