My guest today is Carina Szpilka, General Partner at K Fund. 
Carina and her partners founded K Fund in 2016, marking an important milestone in the growth of the Spanish venture market.  The K Fund founders emphasized operating experience, focusing on partnering with their portfolio companies to build great products and companies.  Today, K Fund manages over 500M euros.
