Growing up, competing in sports taught me resilience – learning from setbacks and adapting quickly. During Covid-19, when sports were largely on hold, I developed a start-up idea, gaining firsthand experience of turning concepts into tangible outcomes. The journey was not linear, but the persistence and adaptability that shaped me in athletics helped me navigate challenges. At Apax, I see the same commitment to growth and innovation, but also continuous learning. For this reason, the value “We learn, adapt and grow” resonates most with me.
