Testimonial

"I had the privilege of working with Chris as an intern during my Berkeley Haas MBA in 2012-14.

Chris set a clear vision at the time: he aimed to increase the European presence in Silicon Valley, to help boost entrepreneurship and knowledge on how to grow cross-Atlantic. Together with other MBA interns, we set up the inaugural Global Venture meeting, connecting senior execs from both EU and US companies (e.g., Adobe, Cisco, SoundCloud, Shazam). I believe the event created great connections - some of which are still active to date. 

Being part of the VC and startup world was inspiring to me - and I felt I did not want to leave this world. Upon graduation in 2014, I rejoined McKinsey for a brief period, after which I transitioned to the tech world myself, working at Salesforce, leading some of our most entrepreneurial teams.

I highly recommend working with Chris on expanding the startup/tech/VC networks, e.g., the Deep Tech program. I am confident it will equally inspire you and help to craft your own path in tech, should you aspire to do so."
