2020-2021:Due to COVID-19, we had to cancel our main event and thus lost most of our revenue. During the pivot, I was part of building the product vision of Node by Slush – a new platform that connects startups and investors every single day. I was responsible of the platform overall, starting from implementation all the way to understanding our customers and their needs and struggles better. 2019-2020: Led a team of 6 developers and 1 UX designer. Was responsible for the development of the Slush Platform, which included a variety of tools and products such as the Slush Matchmaking Tool which was used to send 135 000 meeting requests during Slush 2019.

For two years I was heading Slush’s European activities, strengthening our foothold in the European tech ecosystem by bringing the right people together. Introduced and developed various concepts such as Founder Dinners, Hack Tour, and Small Talks which were very central in our strategy to broaden our impact globally.

Led the ticket sales team of 5 people, our tasks included customer support, sales reports, event capacity overview and handling the tickets of our key partners such as Microsoft, Google, and Nokia.
