Armin is a Salary Partner and has extensive experience in advising companies and investors in the areas of venture capital and complex national and international M&A transactions. 

Armin has a particular focus on financing rounds, exits/buy-outs as well as the establishment and expansion of digital business models through company builders and consulting firms, especially in the areas of digitalization of services, DeepTech, AI, FinTech, Banking, Prop-Tech and e-commerce.
