Servus Munich! 👋

To be honest – I’m dead. Garbicz was a fever dream: wild, euphoric, unforgettable. If you survived it too, I salute you. Personally? I’m retiring from festivals… for at least several months 😵‍💫 But the energy doesn’t stop, and instead of watching Netflix at 7 PM with my fan on turbo mode, I’m here, writing you the #125 FOMO Berlin Newsletter and number #62 FOMO Munich Newsletter and and yes… event number 70 in just 18 months is already on the runway.

Next up: Wednesday 13, 6 PM: FOMO Berlin × Business Punk Aperitivo Vol. 2 – The Second Home for Berlin’s Tech & Business Crowd 🍽 | Our dinner experience will be even bigger. Two shared dinner experiences, with 2 × 30 seats, double the conversations, double the serendipity. A handpicked after-work gathering for the sharpest minds across VC, tech, business, and the creative edge of Berlin.

To be even more active in Berlin, with over 1500 readers for now. 👉 We are looking for someone who would be interested in driving our Munich newsletter and events. Please DM me.

Servus, Munich

🔥💵 Still burning cash on marketing that doesn’t work?! Don't worry, you're not alone. Most early-stage teams waste months testing the wrong channels. And agencies? They’ll happily sell you what they do, not what you need.

Let’s say, I know some guys :) And we thought, let’s finally use the great FOMO Community and network. 

So shorty about Saad, He built and scaled his own startup to Forbes U30 level and has since helped dozens of founders find the one growth lever that actually works. No fluff, just signal.

🧠 He’s offering 3 free growth audits exclusively for FOMO readers.
