FROM ETIA VIA 10 CITIES IN 10 YEARS TO TRADING IN VIENNA

DA alumnus Konstantin Kraus on his career since graduating from the ETIA 07 in 2015

Kraus KonstantinI have met great people at the DA and the experience was a valuable addition to my undergraduate studies at UCL. ETIA helped me to develop a holistic view and to connect with people from various backgrounds. I remain connected to the DA family through Club DA and I am open to connect.

I have worked and studied in 10 cities in the past 10 years so I was super happy when I had the chance to return to Vienna and help businesses with trading digital assets as Team Lead Institutionals at Bitpanda. Previously as Investment Manager at Newport Group, I had the opportunity to learn from amazing founders and serve as a Board Observer in three portfolio companies. At Foodora Austria I learned the importance of sales as Head of Business Development when we launched the Austrian market in 2015.

I also worked for the World Economic Forum and had the opportunity to attend the Annual Meetings in Davos from 2014 to 2016 before I was invited to join the Forum’s Global Shapers community in 2017. I began my career with internships at AXA Private Equity (Ardian), Deutsche Bank’s European Energy Efficiency Fund, and Societe Generale’s Investment Banking Division.
