It is my great pleasure to announce that Voytek Siewierski has joined to Grow VC Global Advisory board. Voytek is an Investment Partner at Mitsui & Co.Venture Partners, Inc., Silicon Valley Office. He is currently managing 12 portfolio companies for MCVP and has closed six deals during his 3 years tenure at MCVP. Before joining MCVP team Voytek was an Executive Director at NTT DoCoMo including 6 years in Japan and 3 years in the UK. After participating in the carrier’s IPO at Tokyo Stock Exchange he coordinated DoCoMo’s international technology partnerships including the partnership with Sun Microsystems that brought Java to mobile phones. Developed a number of successful value added mobile services with partners such as Walt Disney Corporation, Warner Brothers, CNN and others.
Voytek executed a number of international equity investments in cellular carriers in Europe and Asia and initiated a number of technology licensing projects between DoCoMo and mobile operators such as KPN Mobile in Holland, Telefonica in Spain, Boygues Telecom in France and KG Telecom in Taiwan. Between 2004 and 2006 he was in charge of all new business in Europe. His previous experience includes consulting and technology research in the United States and Europe. A visiting lecturer at the University of Oxford and judge in several technology awards programs, including Tech Pioneers of the World Economic Forum in Davos and Mobile Innovation Awards of the GSM Association. Holds M.A.L.D from the Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy (Tufts University/Harvard). Graduate courses in IT and International Marketing at the Harvard Business School.
Voytek is a great addition to our advisory board, bringing an excellent reputation in the investment and business markets in Silicon Valley and Asia. He will give perspective and expertise from Silicon Valley, traditional VC investments, and very interesting Asian markets. Voytek is a person who is always open for new ideas and pragmatic to make successful business.
Voytek comments his new role: “New models are needed for seed investments and startup funding; especially solutions that make the whole startup ecosystem more global, effective and transparent. Grow VC is the most promising and innovate new model for early phase startup funding. Grow VC also helps traditional VC’s find better companies when they have got seed funding from the Grow VC community. Grow VC is an essential new element for the VC and Silicon Valley ecosystem.”
