Founder
Mikel Mangold
Mikel is a commercial operator with seven years of business development across pre-seed, seed and Series A scientific companies. He trained as a chemist and started in polymer chemistry research in Switzerland. In Silicon Valley he worked inside Bayer's CoLaborator biotech incubator and its G4A digital-health accelerator.
At Niterra's venture lab he helped build companies from zero, including Nanell, which was later acquired. He now leads business development and channel partnerships at ATLANT 3D, in atomic-scale manufacturing.
His work connects scientific products with the people and companies that can use them, from the first conversation to the sales process behind it.
