FOMO Munich: October 2 - October 8

Hi Munichers 👋

It's Oktober 🍁 and summer is slowly ending 😔 Which also means it's time for many of us to go out for fundraising again 💵 The fundraising climate has changed, and money is held tighter. For all founders who are going out, I wish you the best of luck 💪 

I will head to New York next week and plan to meet some exceptional people. Stay tuned for a new update next week 😏 If you are in town or know someone who I should meet (founders, investors, eco-system builders), please reach out to me 😘
