General Partner at Credo Ventures, Jakub specializes in writing early pre-seed checks for CEE founders building for global markets. Named to Forbes 30 Under 30 Europe, he has helped drive Credo's thesis of discovering world-class technical talent early and backing them before the rest of the market catches on.
Before venture capital, Jakub worked in defense policy, analyzing strategic technology protection and international security dynamics. Today, he applies that geopolitical and strategic rigor to identify founders solving fundamental physical, industrial and technological bottlenecks.
At How to Web Conference, Jakub reveals the exact criteria Credo uses to spot breakout pre-seed founders in CEE and why hard tech is defining the region's next growth cycle.
