Startup Social Kaunas #36: Paulius Vilemas (investor)
Movie theatre "Daina", Savanorių pr. 74, Kaunas, 44175 Kauno m. sav., Kaunas, LTIt’s time to chat with an investor 🤝
Startup Social Kaunas is a monthly meetup that happens every first Tuesday of the month. We welcome everyone – startup founders, service providers, investors, or anyone simply curious about the Kaunas startup scene 🫡
This month, we’re switching things up a bit. Instead of a founder, we’re welcoming an investor – Paulius Vilemas. We often hear real, raw stories from founders – but investors play a huge role in the startup journey too. How do they see startups? What are the main mistakes, deal breakers, or early signs of future success? How are investment decisions actually made?
Paulius is a founding member of LitBAN and an Investment Director at SOFIGAMA Investments. In addition to being an investor, Paulius is an experienced business development professional and Chief Executive Officer of Energenas Group.
