Investment Thesis

I invest in tech and productcentric founders building software products in Europe or Israel, but mainly in DACH. Founders need to have a strong motivation, a balanced team with different skills and experiences as Theyll as an unfair advantage to crack their market. Tech and product centricity is key for me as an investor.
