Venture Architect

Thomas joined the Bundl family in February 2021 as a Venture Analyst.

And his main role consists of working with corporations and coming up with groundbreaking business ideas, nurturing those ideas, and turning them into prosperous ventures. His main industry focus includes fintech, food, and nature. Before joining Bundl, Thomas led a startup called Connected Heroes, which is a fun and collaborative app that matches like-minded entrepreneurs, where they can connect and help each other. Together with two friends, Thomas also started a hat brand called Vettepet, and according to him, they sell the coolest “dad” hats you’ve ever seen.


Thomas is big on outdoor activities, and during his free time, you might find him going for a run or cycling. And every now and then, he likes to go hiking and/or skiing in the Swiss Alps.
