ABOUT LEON STARK
Continuously challenging myself and others in pursuit of collaborative growth. Currently active in venture clienting at OTTO, where the focus lies in turning startup innovation into real business outcomes. This includes identifying strategically relevant needs and startups, structuring collaborations with clear economic logic, and driving pilots toward scalable implementation.With a background in engineering and management, combined with pursuing a master’s degree in innovation management and finance, I bring a holistic perspective. My focus spans technology, business models, and corporate realities. Experience in corporate venture capital has further strengthened analytical rigor and decision-making quality.The foundation for this growth mindset was laid early through exposure to entrepreneurial thinking -growing up around a family-owned business, where company discussions were part of everyday life, and witnessing firsthand the ups and downs of building and owning a company. This experience continues to shape how risk, opportunity, and long-term value are assessed, including decisions around exiting a business.Outside the professional context, sport plays a central role. Golf provides focus, the gym ensures consistency, and tennis and skiing keep performance grounded. Balance is key
