Dr. Alexander Buchberger
Partner
As an optimist at heart I am excited about supporting ambitious founders. With more than ten years of VC experience, I have profound knowledge in scaling businesses and love working on marketing and sales with our portfolio companies.
After studying technology management in Munich and Sydney, I passed my PhD in start-up risk assessment from WHU Otto-Beisheim School of Management. I gained my professional experience working first at startups and later at a corporate VC. As a Partner and Co-Founder at Senovo, I focus primarily on process-optimization software solutions.
In my freetime, I am a passionate pilot and enjoy fitness and hiking.
Companies include:
Riskmethods (exit), shyftplan, Veact, Atheneum (exit) and Orpheus (exit)
Frederick Mallinckrodt
Partner
I am fascinated by the power of innovation and how fresh ideas paired with courageous entrepreneurs can turn entire markets upside down. With 10 years of investment experience I am aware of the do’s and don’ts of early-stage SaaS companies.
Having worked as a business trainee at Siemens and as a PE/M&A lawyer in Washington D.C. and Munich I am all too familiar with the disruptive nature of ambitious startups. I jumped into the VC space and co-founded Senovo in 2011.
As a father of three, I enjoy taking my family on bicycle tours and ski rides to the Bavarian alps.
Companies include:
Anyline, Customer Alliance, Holidu and Smartlaw (exit)
Lucas Behem
CFO
I am passionate about working with founders who make a dent in tomorrow's world and supporting hands-on to realize their vision. With an affection for numbers and data, I especially enjoy turning early-stage companies into data-driven powerhouses.
Taking part in scaling two fast-growing startups early in my career, I experienced first-hand what can be achieved with courage, dedication and team play. I studied Business and Finance at Bocconi University in Milan and Maastricht University.
Outside of the office I like to spend time in nature or on a sailing boat.
Companies include:
HiveMQ, IP Fabric, Refine, Hello Customer
Markus Grundmann
Partner
I have 20 years of experience in the software industry. Before my first VC investments in SaaS startups in 2011, I had a decade of operating experience in software development, systems integration and IT strategy, mostly for blue chip companies. I hold a MSc in computer science, a MBA from University of Cambridge and am a Partner at Senovo.
I love deep tech and enterprise products and particularly like to work with founders who have deep domain expertise.
Outside of work you can usually find me on a mountain bike barrelling down steep downhill trails.
Companies include:
Quantilope, Manta, tado, Falcon.io (exit)
Mona Gindler
Partner
I joined Senovo to partner with vision-driven entrepreneurs on their journey to reshape entire industries. I am particularly enthusiastic about supporting founders during their transition from founder-led sales to a scalable sales organization. Having lived in Spain for two years, I also have a big heart for the Iberian startup scene.
Previously, I worked as a management consultant specializing in digital growth strategies and M&A. I studied International Business in London and hold an MBA from IE Business School.
Besides being a big foodie and avid traveller, I enjoy supporting initiatives linked to entrepreneurship, technology and diversity. I am the Female Founders Ambassador for Germany, Grow F Mentor and started a Women in VC meetup in Munich. Reach out if you’d like to join.
Companies include:
Archlet, CultureAI, Dive, Parloa
Alberto Giovannetti
Analyst
In Italy, the word Impresa, often translated as "company", also means "endeavor” highlighting the complexity of creating and sustaining something new. I joined Senovo to support the next generation of leaders in scaling their solutions and building impactful ventures.
Previously, I co-founded a startup that was selected for the pre-acceleration program at B4i, the accelerator of Bocconi University, after winning an innovation competition. I studied Innovation Management at the University of Trento and Scuola Superiore Sant’Anna.
Half Spanish and half Italian, I’m passionate about music and food.
