Enrico Mellis founded Animal Syndication Company - building syndicates around founders, not a fund around managers. After a decade as Partner at Lakestar and at Project A, he launched Animal to give founders access to the investors who actually move the needle: exited founders, unicorn operators, industry leaders, and celebrities. Investments he worked on span companies that collectively raised over $2.5B, including Trade Republic, Dexory, Holy Energy, and ARX Robotics. Before VC, he helped scale Foodora from zero through its Delivery Hero IPO.
