MATEUSZ MIERZWINSKI
MY BIO
I am Mateusz and have been an entrepreneur ever since my teenage years, when I founded a business with 19 employees to finance my bachelor degree in Denmark.
​
After my studies, I worked in Investment Banking, before deciding to return to the classroom to complete an MBA at the University of St. Gallen (HSG).
Upon finishing my MBA, I decided to go back to the challenging, fun and passionate world of entrepreneurism.
​
As a citizen of the world that gains energy by discovering new cultures, people & societies, I have created LocalBini. LocalBini is currently the European experential travelling platform via which we bring people together. I believe that even though everything gets more digital and automated, there is still need for human interactions.
My goal is that one day, we can go beyond Europe with LocalBini!
​
​
At weekends, you can potetially spot me in cafés where I meet like-minded entrepreneurs to share and exchange experiences.
Besides, I am a person that likes to do various sports; and when time still allows, I love to cook delicious meals with friends.
PAST EXPERIENCE
What I’ve Done
JUNIOR ADVISOR MERGER & ACQUISITONS, AXPO AG
My three months HSG-MBA project was to create jointy with the Axpo M&A team a corporate venturing model (CVC) that Axpo could potentially apply in the future. After completing the HSG-MBA project, my role was to assist in the implementation of the CVC model.
BUSINESS DEVELOPER & ASSISTANT TO CEO, SOCIETE GENERALE
My two year tenure at Société Générale in Zurich started with a traineeship as "Assistant to CEO". Later, my function was to establish new business relations with SME's in Switzerland; shortly after I engaged in that role, I was also actively contributing within the "Institutionals Team" on selling structured products.
MANAGING DIRECTOR, ZAUBER-KIDS
In order to finance my Bachelor degree in Denmark, I created a small company with 19 employees offering creative and educational workshops/projects to children at schools in Germany.
CO-FOUNDER, THE KIDSWAY E.V.
During my Matura time at high-school, jointly with two other friends, we created a NGO with the goal to assist the young generation in making "healthy, conscious and socially acceptable" decisions (bit a la Immanuel Kant). We contributed for almost two years and had a team of 12 volunteers before we froze our operations. Our vision and mission was too ambitious after all.
