The Team
People who have built, backed and advised.
Still doing all three.
Every person at Helecom has operated in the markets they advise on. The partners we bring into the Group extend that principle, bringing depth in their own domain, not just a name on a page.

Peter Helesic
Helecom Group was founded in Vienna over twenty years ago on a single thesis: that the most valuable thing you can give a founder is someone who has operated in the market they are trying to enter, and will stay involved until the outcome is clear. As the Group’s principal, Peter brings two decades of cross-border operational experience across manufacturing, technology, professional services and consumer sectors in Austria, Germany, Slovakia, Czech Republic, Hungary and beyond. He is an active co-investor within the Danube Angels network and co-founder of StepUpp Ventures in London. He leads both the Advisory and Invest divisions alongside the broader Helecom team.
Twenty years. Both sides of the market. Still picking up the phone.
