We are the entrepreneurs behind CLZ Concepts.
We comprise of a 3 man team (CLZ is a concatenation of our last initials) that is uniquely balanced.
While we all have engineering degrees, our skill sets aligns to an extraordinary degree. Jeff is our resident business development and deal making guru. Linus is an all-arounder with special emphasis on UI design. Lastly, I am the expert in scalable software architecture. Our team live together, work together, party together and go on vacation together. We’re almost at the point of being able to finish each other’s thoughts. We believe that this team is our greatest asset, and so far, we haven’t been disappointed.
So, follow us on our journey, where we get to change the world, one startup at a time.
