Kevin Vangehr
Kevin Vangehr practices in the areas of M&A, venture capital and private equity, restructuring and bankruptcy, and general corporate and trade law. “An important cornerstone of my philosophy on life is the following excerpt from a well-known speech: ‘Stay hungry, stay foolish.’ I live by this motto: I’m always looking to improve – whether in my work as a lawyer, while rock climbing or simply as a person. It takes constant drive and discipline, and of course that ‘hunger‘. At the same time, it is important to me to maintain a sense of foolishness and curiosity. You shouldn’t take yourself too seriously – you should also allow yourself to be a bit crazy and dare to do extraordinary things.”
