Maex Ament
About
I like building and helping to build companies, ideally from the early stages until the startup is ready to scale on its own.
I founded and exited several companies in Germany and the US, among them Taulia (sold to SAP) and Centrifuge (launched our token) in the FinTech and Crypto space.
I advise and invest in startups, such as Highradius, Novicap or Finoa.
My passion is running, I try to collect my thoughts here.
I am an active angel investor, for example through Fos and
Earth.
I am currently "back in the arena" and building Causa Prima.
