Oliver is founder and managing partner of Speedinvest, a leading European early stage VC.As founder and CEO of the Austrian startup sysis, Oliver and his team won a series of international innovation awards for their intelligent online community games such as Austrian national multimedia award and the Europrix Multimedia. As a small Austrian startup, SYSIS signed up customers from around the globe, including Time Inc. in the US, The Times & The Guardian in the UK and Ericsson with whom SYSIS managed to built a global strategic partnership. In 2000, Oliver sold his first business, FUNDAQ, a subsidiary of SYSIS that pioneered the field of online virtual communities, to Blue-C AG. Starting 2000, Oliver transformed the core business of SYSIS towards intelligent mobile applications, which resulted in 2004 in the formation of 3united AG, a local 3 way merger that created the most innovative European player in the rapidly growing mobile content industry. Leading 3united, Oliver oversaw 2 years of rapid growth and great customer success in Europe. Revenues grew by more than 50% each year, even more importantly, 3united was one of the very few mobile startups that boasted a massively positive EBIT margin, which resulted early 2006 in the acquisition of 3united by VeriSign Inc. (NASDAQ: VRSN). Since then Oliver took on the global responsibility for the mobile media business within VeriSign, driving the integration of 3united, mQube and other acquisitions of VeriSign to a unified, global team.End of 2008, Oliver returned to Austria and switched sides to become an angel investor in Austrian and CEE based startups.
