Nice to meet you
👋 Hi, I'm Ben
I'm a serial entrepreneur and founder. I grew up in the UK and moved to Berlin in 2013 where I taught myself how to code 👨💻
I co-founded Nuri (prev. Bitwala) and grew it from 3 people and a dog to a 120+ person company before moving to chairman 📈
Now I mentor founders and help them grow 🌱
Where I support
Vision & Strategy
Figure out the big things first. Defining and aligning on the core identity and purpose of your company is crucial for success.
Culture & Values
What kind of company do you want to build? Culture comes from the founders and it's important to get it right from the start.
Leadership & Personal Growth
A company is only as successful as its founders. Build a personal growth plan that empowers you to lead your startup through growth.
Co-founder Relations
Co-founder breakup is the biggest cause of startup failure. Build a strong relationship through clear roles and honest feedback.
Product & Tech
Design, build and execute. Getting this right is key to a startup's success.
Fundraising
Fundraising is often a complete mystery for new founders. I support on the process by advising on pitch decks and making intros to investors.
Working with me
My working style is a combination of coaching & mentoring. Mentoring comes from a place expertise - my experience as a founder. Coaching is asking the right questions to help that person become an expert in themselves.
What the founders say
"Working with Ben has transformed how I lead and make decisions. His coaching gave me clarity, sharpened my focus, and helped me approach challenges with confidence and conviction."
