Erika Wernolf

I found my passion for entrepreneurship and startups at an early age, founding my first company in high school. I continued this path throughout university with active participation in the startup community as co-founder and developing multiple startup concepts in Portugal, China & Japan, that were pitched in front of investors.

After my studies in Social Entrepreneurship, I have led projects for DAX30 companies as an Innovation Consultant at HYVE, worked in business development for emotion AI startup TAWNY, and validated venture ideas at company builder, Stryber.

Currently, I am freelancing as an Innovation Consultant for startups going from prototype to mass market - assisting with business development, strategy, and operations.

My experience and network from living in 10 different countries and working in various industries and functions makes me extremely adaptable, fostering innovation at every step.
