For the first time, the Andělské investování podcast is recorded entirely in English. Host Petr Šíma is joined by Martin Herrmann, former CEO in the energy sector and today an active angel investor. In the conversation, Martin reflects on his journey from leading international corporates to supporting startups, and shares what makes angel investing so rewarding. Together they discuss why European corporates should work more closely with startups, how angels add value beyond money, the growing influence of AI and hardware in the investment landscape, and what founders and investors can realistically expect when it comes to exits and secondaries. This episode offers an engaging perspective for anyone interested in startups, angel investing, and the future of innovation in Europe.
