Dennis comes from Hamburg, got infected by the entrepreneurial spirit while on exchange in Palo Alto, California. Later he studied in Switzerland and Shanghai. After studying Dennis helped roll out several businesses at Rocket Internet, Helpling and then build up the marketing at Enpal.
David was born in what is now Dunkeldeutschland and later studied in Rhineland Palatine. He joined university with a 100% conviction to work at McKinsey. That conviction held up until he was exposed to the entrepreneurial scene at his university. After studying David helped roll out a healthcare company where he got intimately familiar with the powers of Salesforce and learned lots about how not to manage a company.
Dennis and David met when David tried to unsuccessfully get a job at Dennis former employer Helpling. While calling David to tell him that he didn't trust a 22 year old to lead a team of 35 with a total experience of 3 internships Dennis invited David for dinner.
From that Dinner onwards they became good friends and frequently talked about starting various ventures. However, it took until a flight in February 2019 from Berlin to Kyiv (Слава Україні !) for Dennis to convince David to go for it. Touching down in winterly Kyiv they decided to go into business together right then.
The plan was to do some freelancing in the Salesforce space while ideating to start a venture-backed business. Fantastic plan. Only the Salesforce projects kept on coming and they were challenging and rewarding. So the 6 months of freelancing turned into an actual company. Valuent was founded in December 2019.
From then on we grew to over 20 people, survived a global pandemic, experienced an almost revolution, failed to become a JobRad customer, made plenty of mistakes and delivered 100 + projects for our customers.
We want you to be part of the next chapters.
