Austria-based financial services firm Raiffeisen Bank International (RBI) has effectively separated its corporate venture capital and partnerships units.
Maximilian Schausberger (pictured), had managed RBI’s fintech partnership program, Elevator Lab, and corporate VC unit Elevator Ventures but has moved to managing director of Elevator Ventures, which invests in early and growth-stage developers of financial and adjacent technologies in Central and Eastern Europe.
Christian Wolf, former head of group transformations at RBI, has stepped up to head of strategic partnerships and ecosystems, equating to Elevator Lab’s activities.
Schausberger had previously spent 18 months as head of fintech partnerships prior to his last role.
