We’re excited to announce that serial entrepreneur and investor Roman Kirsch, will speak at this year’s EU-Startups Summit on May 9-10 in Malta!
Roman was not only a driving force behind successful e-commerce ventures like Casacanda, Fab, Lesara, Amorelie, and Yepoda, but also an early supporter and investor in notable consumer internet and technology companies, including enpal, Animoca Brands, Bending Spoons, and everdrop.
Through his private internet holding company, Rapid Pioneers Group, which is based in Berlin, Roman has co-founded great consumer internet and commerce-enabling software companies since 2011. Rapid Pioneers Group is dedicated to building 1-2 companies annually and investing in 3-5, predominantly focusing on European enterprises. His impressive portfolio, which includes over 30 companies, has raised more than $5 billion in follow-on capital, employs over 10,000 people, and boasts 4 unicorns: enpal, Bending Spoons, Fab, and Animoca.
At the EU-Startups Summit, Roman will draw on his vast experience to share the lessons he’s learned from both sides of the entrepreneurial journey – as a builder and an investor in a talk titled: “Learnings from scaling 10+ startups and investing in European unicorns” This session promises invaluable insights for anyone looking to scale their startup internationally or explore investment opportunities in the Europe’s consumer internet market.
