I've known Max since secondary school, where we shared an interest in technology, politics and various other topics. I always knew him as a good friend, which is why I brought him in as one of the first members of our core team in a start-up with a few rough sketches and an idea. Together with him, we quickly built a team of people that he trusted and that we build on today. In the beginning we worked overtime in cafés and libraries and he always kept going, which is one reason why we still exist today. His flair for people, coupled with a strong technical background, makes him the perfect fit as HR director and management partner in our tech startup. His resilience and charismatic personality amazes me every day. He is fair and competitive. Having him as a strategic advisor gives me confidence for the future of the company. I would like to use this post to say: thank you!
