About
Hi, I’m Dawid! 🚀 Entrepreneur at heart. Angel investor by hobby. 🌍 Bilingual and culturally enriched, I was raised between Germany and Poland, fostering a deep appreciation for diverse perspectives. I’ve built my own start-up, contributed to successful start-ups with impactful exits, and honed my skills in corporate venture building. Through these experiences, I’ve developed a strong understanding of B2B2C marketplaces, with a knack for driving product-market fit in complex ecosystems. 💡 Currently venturing into angel investments, I’m on a mission to support the next generation of founders building innovative solutions.

Founding Partner & Cco
I joined FounderBlocks, a very early startup studio - mostly for fun and a challenge. Goal: triple revenue from ~€400K to ~€1.2M and help 100+ founders a year get from idea to traction. After 11 months, goal overachieved. We have reached well over 1.5M in signed revenue and helped 150+ founders! Working with a lot of founders did not get me excited, so moved on to build the new YC version of Europe.
