Who Am I: tl;dr version

I started my first business at 16, selling PCs. I then owned and managed some offline businesses (real estate agency, night club and others).

I started to work online in 2005, I’ve been the Romanian representative for Yahoo! in 2008, I started a consulting business in online communication in 2006, I’ve been involved in building the blogging community in Romania, sold some blogs, co-founded a startup (MavenHut) in gaming, part of the 2012 cohort at Startup Bootcamp Dublin. Left MavenHut in 2016, started angel investing and startup mentoring. In 2017 I launched The CEO Library.

In 2020 I’ve looking at a new business, still in the early stages.

Who Am I: Long version

– 2020 – new startup, early-early stage

– 2016 – I started to invest in several funds: SOSV III, MVP Fund, as well as on my own in some companies (Freebusy, among them).

– 2016 – I quit as CEO of MavenHut and I stopped operational involvement in MavenHut.

– 2008 – 2009 – Yahoo!’s representative in Romania

– 2006 – 2012 – started a 2 hours radio show in Romania (radiolynx.ro) about internet. The show lasted for 6 years. It was early podcasting, I now realize.
