Born in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, he started his first company when he was 19 years old. Prior to founding Walter, Steven was the Co-founder and CEO of Karma, an NYC-based wireless internet provider. He led the company’s growth to 250k+ customers. TechStars alumni.
He also co-founded GetMarvia.com, a web-to-print SaaS company, acquired by the Dutch Royal Post in 2013.
Nearly two decades ago, looking to buy his first home, and frustrated by the lack of choices on the market, he decided to build his own house. This idea evolved into his first company, a real-estate agency, where they designed, developed and sold sixty units and built three apartment towers.
