Schebesta Ventures is operator-led capital.
I've built and scaled SaaS businesses end-to-end: from writing the first lines of code, to bootstrapping a MarTech SaaS (Newsletter2Go) into a category leader, to an acquisition by Sendinblue (now Brevo) in 2019.
After that, I led North America and M&A from Toronto, supporting Brevo’s international expansion, helping raise $160M in growth funding, and scaling the company into a global unicorn.
Since 2024, I've built and chaired Brevo's Advisory Board.
Along the way, I co-founded Jurafuchs, Germany’s #1 e-learning app for law students and legal professionals, and RFQ2GO, the future of aerospace estimation software.
Today, I invest Pre-Seed and Seed in ambitious founders across SaaS, MarTech, and EdTech, bringing early capital plus hands-on sparring on product, GTM, hiring, and fundraising.
