Veronika is defined by her international experience. More than 15 years of work and studies in the UK, Canada, Spain, and Czechia allow her to approach things differently.
Vero’s studies and early projects centered on media, communication, and entrepreneurship, creating the ideal foundation for a career that blends business strategy and creativity. Feel free to talk to her about creativity management, design thinking, startup culture, or the experience economy.
After graduating from the University of Warwick, Veronika ventured into the agency world as a strategist, often handling more than 30 active accounts at a time. This is when she discovered her knack for project management and internal operations, as well as affinity for well designed digital products. From here, it was only a hop, skip, and a jump to the tech world.
Her director role at Co.Labs, Saskatchewan's first tech business incubator and accelerator, allowed her to dive right into the world of startups. While running the incubator’s events and programming, Vero particularly enjoyed the ability to guide resident startups through brand strategy and UI/UX workshops or mentorship sessions.
Upon her return to the Czech Republic, Vero immersed herself in startup operations, joining UlovDomov.cz and Idealni najemce as their CMO during a time of rapid growth.
In the last few years, she’s had the opportunity to translate her agency experience and passion for working with entrepreneurs into a consulting and investment practice with a focus on branding, user and customer experience, and marketing strategies.
At Presto, Vero makes sure the world learns about the true entrepreneurial spirit and boundless potential that CEE+ startups and founders bring to the table.
