Beata
Klein

Beata is Creandum’s Principal currently based in London. She is a generalist champion and immerses herself daily in a variety of topics, from fractals to the Hong Kong real estate market.

Beata brings experience from a range of roles, although she’s only two years into her post-university career. After internships in investment banking at Danske Bank and e-commerce at H&M, she decided to embark on the journey as a trainee within the Kinnevik Group and worked closely with the CEO at Tele2 for a year. Her curiosity and love for Pho then led her to Vietnam, where she launched and built an ed-tech company from scratch, including setting up core processes and building a strong team.

“Nobody knows your day-to-day like you do, especially as an entrepreneur - the more insight you give others, the more they might come up with questions that could open your eyes to new ways.”

She holds an MSc degree from Chalmers University of Technology, which she completed in four years instead of the usual five. Beata is fond of brass music and she is an avid reader, currently on a mission to complete the top 100 classics. Just as Madeleine Cakes made the author of her latest book, Marcel Proust, reminisce, she gets warm at the sight of others walking their dogs, so her favourite pastime activity is spending time with her best friend, the Jack Russell Terrier Buzz.
