Opportunities for the future
"Meeting founders and CEOs that are building fast-scaling software businesses is where I get my energy. What I love most about origination is the long-term relationship building – meeting founders long before they're thinking about a partner. In today’s market, those relationships matter more than ever. I follow trends in Regulatory & Compliance closely, in particular around EHS, ESG and supply chain."
