This is an excerpt from the episode published on Sunday.

I’m sure you know by now how much I enjoy interviewing the VC community. They are incredibly nimble and have a strong entrepreneurial spirit that sets them apart. For this episode, I had the unique pleasure of chatting with Johan who is one of Europe's most renowned names in venture capital investment.

Johan has achieved incredible success in the world of venture capital and entrepreneurship--and now he's here to tell us all about his journey with Creandum.

As diversity is a top priority for me and my podcast, I had to discuss this with Johan. We delved into the lofty diversity goals that his venture capital firm has set, particularly in relation to women on their teams and investments.

Johan tells us about the implementation of their diversity index, offers a wealth of relevant data and provides us with tangible results to date.

We couldn't pass up this VC's flagship investments in FinTechs such as Swan and Trade Republic. 

Out of the 120 companies that Creandum supports, it's no surprise that several have become unicorns. 

We discuss their unique selling proposition (USP) as well as the positioning of the manager in European ecosystems.
