Sebastian von Wildenrath Wegmann

Sebastian is not your ordinary VC guy. When it comes to building tech companies his insights are as exceptional as the length of his name (it would never fit a standard business card, good thing we don’t carry those anymore). In 2016 Sebastian found a missing link in the chain between the hospitality businesses in need of flexible staff and job-seeking youngsters. So he and a friend decided to fix it. They founded the startup Chabber and somehow, they managed to become among the last 500 out of 10,000 startups to stand at the doorstep to join the world-famous accelerator program Y-Combinator in California. Not long after, the paths of PSV and Sebastian crossed for the first time. We invested in Chabber and while the venture journey never quite took off, we couldn’t shake the tall guy with the orange app out of our heads - and luckily we stuck in his too; fast forward to seven years later where Sebastian joined our investment team. The circle is complete! So Sebastian is your guy, if you’re a founder looking for an investor who has been in your shoes. Under his Patagonia vest he knows what product/market-fit really looks like and understands that creating a hockey-stick curve is built through a journey that is everything but linear.
