Founder

Milan Saes

Milan Saes is the founder of Everest Square Capital. Born in a family where both parents are active in healthcare, I was confronted with healthcare from a young age, hearing all the intriguing stories my mom and dad experienced, I was interested from a young age.

Before Everest Square Capital, I was the founder of a marketing agency. I’m also an investor and shareholder of NCY Essentials (www.ncyessentials.com). After having worked in marketing for several years, I decided that it was time for a switch. My switch to private equity has been rewarding both financially and personally. I was CEO and co-founder of a firm called Straise, which was an investment banking firm for startups in Europe (not industry specific). After having bought the shares of my partner in this business, I continue the investment banking work for companies under this new brand.

Having finished courses in Pharmacology at Harvard Medical School, this made me discover my special interest in pharmaceuticals and biotechnology.

Everybody, at some point, is confronted with health related issues. The thing I can’t seem to accept is the helplessness that’s involved with having no other options anymore. I don’t know if it’s my nature of being an entrepreneur and always seeking solutions, or my personality, but I always want to fight. Luckily, I’ve found other people who share that mission with me, this is our way of making a difference. This way we hope to accelerate innovation in healthcare by supporting management teams financially.

After work, I’m a big fan of burger restaurants, lots of running, and watching good movies.
