Having a strong background in Mobile Telecoms and since 2005 in Web and Mobile Startups herself, Cornelia has invested as an angel investor in several startups all over the world, incl. South East Asia, Africa, Middle East and of course Europe. I enjoy helping the startups get off the ground in a very early stage, before a ''proper'' first investment round can take place.

Currently B2B and agriculture are topics that I want to explore more.
