E369 | EUVC | Roundtable discussion on investing in culture and creative tech - deep dive on AI and the future of music

EUVC

In this episode of the European VC podcast, we're diving into the fascinating world of investing in culture and everything that surrounds it.

At the CultTech Summit on November 5th and 6th in Vienna, a dedicated panel discussion is planned, and as a foretaste, we have brought together a panel of experts with diverse backgrounds who are reshaping how we think about culture and creativity through investment.

We are joined by Oliver Holle, Founding Managing Partner at Speedinvest, who brings a wealth of knowledge from his experience backing startups across various sectors. Alongside Oliver, we have Severin Zugmeyer, Founder of New Renaissance Ventures, who specializes in pre-seed and seed investments, particularly in creative tech.

We’re also excited to welcome Uli Schmitz, Co-Founder and Managing Director of Axel Springer Digital Ventures, an expert in the media and adjacent spaces. Finally, we are completing the panel with Hazel Savage, VP of Music Intelligence at SoundCloud, whose insights into the intersection of tech and music will add a unique perspective to the discussion.
