In the ‘Seedcamp Podcast Series’ we talk with key people in the tech startup industry to hear their stories, key advice and learnings from their experiences.

Stefan Klestil, Partner at Speedinvest, joins Carlos for our latest podcast. Alongside Seedcamp, Speedinvest invested in Holvi (acquired by BBVA) and in Curve, the fintech startup that consolidates all your payment cards into one. In this episode, Stefan and Carlos talk through his career, investments in the fintech space and how investors can best support their founders. Stefan also gives an insight into what Speedinvest looks for in startups and which geographies are of key interest for new startups working in the FinTech space.

Stefan started his first company 25 years ago as a student, and is still exists today. He really loves supporting strong founders to build great businesses. He gets a total kick when he sees them grow their business and grow as a person. In working with founders, he leverages 20 years of international experience in financial technology. In his role, he’s accountable to the founders for supporting them with business and corporate development or fundraising.
