Meet our next venture leader today, Teddy Amberg, Partner & Chief Business Development Officer of CreditGate24. The startup provides financing for private individuals, self-employed and SMEs, by connecting them directly with private and institutional investors. The highly automated platform ensures full anonymity, security and high efficiency.
Why do you choose New York as your business development destination?
New York is the financial capital of the US. It is our aim to bring P2P lending to the largest institutional investors, as this has already started with e.g. Prosper’s recent USD 5 billion bond placement.
What do you want to achieve on the trip?
Our goal is to get a better understanding of the US market, i.e. US lenders (rather than US platforms). I would like to make new contacts, to be challenged, to learn a lot and to have fun.
Why is venture leaders Fintech beneficial for your company?
We greatly appreciate the publicity we get from being part of the team, combined with hands-on coaching, introductions to important contacts and a positive spirit in the venture leaders team.
Have you been to New York before?
Yes. There are some great rooftop bars and steakhouses in NYC!
