Fil Guijarro

Fil has spent over 10 years in the startup scene in Berlin. In this time he has worked to internationalize startups once they had found success in the German market. Today Fil specializes in helping digital companies in various countries to acquire, train, and manage multinational sales teams, in order to position themselves strategically. From his point of view, internationalization is 5% localization – 95% sales!

Fil has helped dozens of companies over the years, and actively participates as a mentor in a handful of accelerator programs and as a lecturer within the startup ecosystem.
