Lessons in Venture: What You’re Missing

GP AMA with Daniel Keiper-Knorr - June 12, noon WEST

A rare, no-BS, small-group AMA with one of Europe’s most influential GPs.

"The economy does matter. Tech and venture are not isolated - they are integral parts of the wider economy. Innovation must create real value, not just exist for its own sake."
- Daniel Keiper-Knorr, General Partner @ Speedinvest

On June 12, you’re invited to join an intimate, private AMA with Daniel Keiper-Knorr, General Partner at Speedinvest.

It’s a rare chance to ask one of Europe’s top GPs anything - in a real-time, off-the-record group setting, where no topic is off-limits.

Ask whatever you want. Nothing’s scripted. No fluff. Just real answers, from someone who’s raised hundreds of millions and still shows up to build LP relationships, one at a time.

Tom & Rena’s Masterclass: Offshore Horror Stories & How to Avoid Them

If you’re setting up an offshore structure and think it’s “just a legal task,” this masterclass will be your wake-up call.

Tom & Rena have seen it all: the blown deals, the misaligned jurisdictions, the horror stories founders still don’t talk about publicly. And in this masterclass, they held nothing back:

💬 "There’s no perfect answer - but this is the playbook we wish we had when we started."
💬 "We’re tired of seeing founders burn time, trust, and deals because of poor structure advice."
💬 "This is the raw version - not the conference clip."

Key Session Takeaways (TL;DR)

  • Delaware ≠ default: Great for QSBS, but risky if you don’t have U.S. ops. Often bad for EU-focused startups.

  • Tax traps are real: Bad structuring can lead to millions in unexpected taxes, even when there are no proceeds.

  • IP follows your CTO: Where your tech lead sits can trigger FDI reviews, transfer pricing issues, and tax exposure.

  • Flips are expensive: Avoid unless you're early-stage or relocating to the U.S. - late flips can cost €150k+.

  • Ask better questions: Withholding taxes? Double tax treaties? FDI red flags? LPA restrictions? All must be checked.

  • Investors: stay sharp

    • Don’t greenlight flips without a good reason

    • Always check founder tax residency & long-term implications
