We are thrilled to announce that Alexander Kiltz has been promoted to Principal 🎉
Since joining us in 2017, he has shown relentless hustle and ambition to partner with Europe’s most promising tech founders. Being a strong networker, he sourced and helped lead multiple investments for the fund such as finn.auto, tacto and TWAICE. Since opening our Berlin office in 2019, Alex has led the charge in establishing our footprint in one of Europe’s top startup ecosystems. In addition, he initiated and drives the fund’s Junior Investment Analyst Program to help promote the next generation of VC investors. He helped shape our thinking in areas such as mobility, quantum computing, and procurement. At UVC Partners, Alex focuses mostly on enterprise software and mobility investments. Besides the DACH region, he covers the Nordics.
We look forward to continuing our support of his career in venture capital and are excited to see which investment he will be leading for the fund in the future.
