Maximilian Wilhelm

Max joined Speedinvest as an investor in May 2020 as a member of the Marketplaces & Consumer investment team, primarily working between Munich and Paris.

He collaborates closely with marketplace companies like Timberhub, Packhelp, and Fairlyne, as well as consumer-focused startups including Kittl, Melotech, Atman Labs, Complori, and Revyze.

He is passionate about revolutionizing traditional industries with unconventional approaches and business models. And after experiencing the rollercoaster cycle that was 2020-2023, he is convinced that the next generation of founders will be even more resilient and driven as they shape the future of business in the coming years under new conditions.

Having lived in Paris (where he helped to establish Speedinvest's first office in France), London, Bolzano, and Barcelona, and being fluent in four languages, Max has a deep understanding of diverse ecosystems and cultures.

Before joining Speedinvest, Max gained experience in Data & Analytics Consulting, Luxury Real Estate, and Marketing and Legal Tech startups. He also holds a Master of Science in Innovation and Entrepreneurship from ESADE (Spain) and a Bachelor's Degree in Economics and Management from unibz (Italy).

In his free time, you will find Max playing all kinds of sports, followed by some hearty food and a cold pint of beer.
