I am a Berlin-based founder and investor with hands-on operating experience. I am Founder and Chairman of ARCbuild, a prefab steel modular homes business addressing the affordable housing crisis, and a founding investor who actively partakes in management. I also lead Utopia Capital Management, investing in Zero to One, deep-tech and moonshot ideas, and run 10x Value Partners, my personal investment firm that invests early stage but typically post-revenue, is sector and geo agnostic, and creates one to two companies a year from scratch.
I have been an angel investor since 2016 with a broad portfolio including Open Mineral, Prolific, HYGH and ARCbuild among others. I have co‑founded and helped scale companies, notably helping Collective Ace Group raise $25m and reach eight-figure ARR and HYGH AG raise $30m and reach eight-figure ARR. I take a founder-facing approach, commonly participating in management, fundraising and company building.
