How he presents

An inspirational speaker, Valentin talks about the ups and downs of building one of Europe's most successful fintech companies.

In Detail

Valentin started his career in the start-up/tech space as Entrepreneur in Residence at Rocket Internet, where he was involved in building different internationally successful companies. Valentin quit his job in order to set up his own bank. His feel for financial matters is something that he had already developed during his time at the University of St.Gallen, where he studied Business Administration and obtained a Master's degree in Accounting and Finance. In 2013, he and his partner finally set up Europe's first mobile bank, N26, which reached a million customers. N26 has optimised banking for smartphones: simple, fast and in tune with the times. An account can be opened completely on the smartphone in less than eight minutes. Customers can send money to friends and contacts by e-mail or SMS in the same second.

WHAT he OFFERS YOU

Valentin reimagined how a bank should work as he has tried to build something that is like using Uber or Spotify or any of these apps that we love to use. Valentin has invented the banking experience for the digital generation.
