Who you are working with
Real people, in your corner.
We have both built companies the expensive way. That is why we built this one.
Two founders who have started and sold companies across three continents, now running Anvilda from New Zealand. We coach every company on the platform, we are in this for years rather than months, and when something matters you talk to one of us.
Marco
Grew up in Germany and spent fifteen years in Boston and San Francisco. Early at several startups: one raised over a hundred million and imploded, another raised far less and went public. Co-founded the first online coding bootcamp, sold the first two million in revenue himself, and exited through acquisition. Scaled the product at the acquirer to eight figures of ARR inside a year, into a $750M exit. Co-founded Climate Drift after. Now Anvilda.
Gerben
Started his first company at sixteen in the Netherlands and has never had a job since. He was employing half his university class before he graduated. Built the country’s earliest online insurance comparison site, then Mexico’s first online car-insurance broker, and a string of other firsts across several markets and continents. Co-founded Upinion in 2013. Now Anvilda.
