Alexandre Prot - Qonto x The Delta Founders on the Top

Founders at the Top

Hosted by Qonto and The Delta

Founders at the Top is a five-evening series across Berlin's startup ecosystem, co-hosted by The Delta and Qonto.

The evening

Alexandre Prot is the co-founder and CEO of Qonto - the leading European business finance solution. After graduating from HEC and INSEAD, Alexandre started his career with Goldman Sachs and McKinsey & Company. In 2013, he founded Smok.io together with Steve Anavi - the first connected electronic cigarette and experienced the frustrations of business banking.

Finding their banking experience time-consuming and complex, they envisioned a way to break free from these constraints. Therefore, they founded Qonto, the business finance solution for SMEs and freelancers, simplifying everything from everyday banking and financing to bookkeeping, invoicing and spend management.

Qonto has expanded its horizons across Europe, raising €622 million from the world's largest investors. The company now serves 600,000 clients in 8 countries (France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Austria, Belgium, the Netherlands and Portugal) and has over 1,700 employees.

On September 8, Alex joins us live on the rooftop of The Delta Campus for an honest conversation about what it truly takes to build a European category-defining company.
