ABOUT / REMO KYBURZ

Understand it first.
Then build it.

I’m Remo, an AI builder, startup operator and investor based in Zurich. I like understanding how things work—and then making something useful with what I learn.

01 / BUILDING

From the idea to the first users.

I’ve founded companies and built products myself. Most recently, that means Laudia, a SaaS for AI search visibility, and Remotli, a Swiss remote-job portal. I like the short distance between noticing a problem and making a first version that someone can try. E-commerce is a side interest: Laudia ships a Shopify app I built, and I once set up an online store on Wix to learn the retail side first-hand.

02 / OPERATING

Inside the business, alongside the founder.

I connect a company’s ambitions with its finances and day-to-day operations. That has meant building financial infrastructure, supporting fundraising and giving founders a clearer view of the decisions ahead.

03 / INVESTING

Seeing the company from the other side.

At TX Ventures, I worked with founders from an investor’s perspective. Through angel investing, I’ve also backed early-stage companies myself. Those experiences shape how I think about customer demand, products and the economics of a business.

04 / FOUNDATIONS

Finance, strategy, and a wider view.

Earlier chapters include Accenture Strategy, BlackRock and PwC. I studied banking and finance at the University of Zurich, with time studying in Vienna and Hong Kong. Together, these experiences gave me a foundation I still use when building and running companies.

AWAY FROM THE DESK

There’s more
than the work.

I grew up near Lucerne and now call Zurich home. Mountains, snowboarding, salsa and a good board game are usually a good reason to step away from the screen.

In 2021–22, I spent time travelling through Latin America. I’m still drawn to new places, a different perspective, and good Mexican food.

That curiosity also led to Leap Takers ↗, my podcast conversations with entrepreneurs and investors about the paths they took.
