A true serial entrepreneur, Michael has co-founded successful ventures like Toni Digital and Descartes Finance, all still thriving today. His passion lies in creating new ventures with inspiring people. Starting as a publishing company, additiv has transformed over the years into a global fintech leader. Initially, additiv was a sports marketing firm collaborating with giants like Swatch and Japan Tobacco for Formula One. Today, additiv serves high-profile clients like NatWest Group, Zurich Insurance, and Citi, with offices worldwide.
