Sebastian Borek

Sebastian Borek is an international founder with background in the German Mittelstand. After high-school, Sebastian was attracted by „the Big Apple“. In New York, he experienced the first big startup boom and even an IPO, just to found my own company right after. Since then, Sebastian is passionate about big ideas and people that are working on changing the world. He is co-founder and the entrepreneurial mind behind the Founders Foundation. Prior to that, he started companies in the US, Europe, and Brasil. His most recent stop was at a company builder in Berlin. Sebastian knows the culture of Mittelstand all too good. He led and restructured a family-owned business in the past. Based on this he knows that the pot doesn’t boil if you watch it. His profile is unique but ideal for his new task ahead: „I want to bring both worlds together, because only then we can build up a solid entrepreneurial environment in our region.“ – As innovativ as New York, as down-to-earth and action-oriented as OWL.
