Founder / investor / advisor
Daniel Graetzer
I work across AI, iGaming, venture, and digital media, usually around the messy middle where strategy, product, operations, and capital have to line up.
Profile
I have spent more than two decades building, scaling, advising, investing in, and restructuring companies across technology, regulated betting, digital media, restaurants, and frontier tech.
The common thread: practical execution, commercial judgment, and an appetite for new markets before they become obvious.
