Senior Investment Consultant
Mariusz Gąsienica
Experience based on hard data
Mariusz joined Tatry Strategy Group in February 2017. Previously, he worked for 9 years as a lead analyst in a capital fund in Krakow. He does not believe in empty promises and visions without coverage. For him, only what is visible in the spreadsheet matters. In 2023, he conducted 43 financial audits for companies at the Seed and Series A stages. Each of these projects ended with a concrete risk report in less than 48 hours.
He specializes in preparing companies for meetings with investors. Numbers don't lie – in the first half of 2024 alone, he helped our clients raise 18.4 million PLN in funding. Mariusz knows how to talk to VC funds from Germany and Austria. He effectively introduced 14 Polish startups to foreign markets, ensuring that their cost structure survived the collision with the new reality.
Specifics instead of theory
At Tatry Strategy Group, Mariusz is responsible for verifying business models. If your idea has gaps, he will find them in the first fifteen minutes of the meeting. This is not malice, just pragmatism. Thanks to this approach, our clients avoid mistakes that cost startups an average of 140 thousand zlotys in the implementation phase. We go straight to the summit, but only when the ground under our feet is stable.
