Founder Associate / Entrepreneur-in-Residence
Hey, I’m Dan
I thrive in the unique energy of startups, where momentum, ambiguity, and creative chaos aren’t just accepted—they’re required: You need to operate at full speed, fail fast, and keep your cool.
I’m a highly driven individual, coming straight from the founder's arena, a month after exiting a company I cofounded myself (€2.5M revenue, 1,100 clients, 14 employees)—I know firsthand what it means to juggle shifting priorities, set up new departments, and constantly adapt—and I love it.
Joining the HV Capital pool is especially appealing because it means being plugged directly into Europe’s most ambitious tech ecosystem. I want to be surrounded by operators, VCs, and founders—not just for the network, but for the real, daily exposure to best practices, mistakes, and the next big thing. I love forming hypotheses, talking to customers, digging into new markets, and running experiments until something clicks. The feeling when it clicks is addictive.
With my recent exit, I will add value as a Founder Associate or Entrepreneur in Residence from day one—no extensive onboarding needed. I’m used to wearing multiple hats, building processes from scratch. This isn’t just about learning; it’s about building something big as part of the team, while helping founders execute so they can focus on what they do best.
