Felix Ohswald
Co-Founder and CEO @ GoStudent
Felix Ohswald is a seed investor at GoStudent focused on Software and SaaS. I believe everybody has a hidden talent and it needs a trigger to develop the full potential. My trigger was my brother when we set the foundation for building GoStudent, the best funded K-12 EdTech startup in Europe. My vision is to scale GoStudent to become the No. 1 global school helping children to unlock their full potential.

Audvice
|
Audvice unlocks the power of voice messages for companies to share information more effectively across their teams, partners and customers. 85% of the population listens to audio content for almost three hours a day. Audio is popular because it works on-the-go and it adds emotion and context. Companies have not been able to leverage this potential— until now. Audvice makes it easy for everyone to record, edit and organize voice messages — from CEOs to sales trainees. Information gets perfectly structured in playlists that can be shared in Audvice or on other platforms. Companies like Red Bull or ADAC use Audvice to make onboardings, briefings or even follow-ups more effective. | Seed / Dec 20, 2021 |
