Steven Renwick is a British technology entrepreneur living in Berlin, with a unique combination of experience in healthcare, fintech and technology. He is a product-focused CEO/founder with a passion for building businesses that actually make a difference in people's lives. In an earlier life, he started out working as a consultant in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industry, advising on IP valuation, deal structuring, and M&A.
In November 2021 he co-founded Tilores, a start-up that specializes in helping tech scale-ups to radically transform their data infrastructure efficiency using Tilores, their entity resolution technology, while dramatically cutting prototyping time and decreasing operating costs. With Tilores, scale-ups can achieve unlimited processing scalability without adding a single machine or headcount to the tech budget.
Steven founded Satago in 2012 to help SMBs use technology to improve credit control and cash flow, before pivoting the company into a fintech business providing invoice finance through software. He raised ~£5M (debt & equity) to develop the business from VCs and Angels and grew the team to 16 people. He exited Satago in 2017. The company is currently listed on the Alternative Investment Market (AIM) in London.
