Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolChris Schagen is a serial entrepreneur and CEO with nine years of recent product and go-to-market leadership in mobile, web, and developer-focused technologies, now leading Terramate from Berlin. He scaled teams and businesses across B2C, B2B and B2D—most notably building Contentful’s marketing organization from scratch and driving 100x revenue growth and >130% net dollar retention. A hands-on operator who believes execution is the decisive advantage, he also invests and advises startups while serving on boards, bringing both founder-level grit and corporate-scale growth experience. Early exits and large-scale launches (including a $100M run-rate business at VeriSign) underline his ability to commercialize digital products across markets and countries. Unobvious detail: he blends deep marketing craft with product and developer relations sensibilities, making him especially effective in developer tech businesses.
