We´re not sure if Nico and Andi plotted their big business plan in the sandbox, but what we do know is that their friendship started there. It all began with an eager Nico in marketing class who came up with the idea and a supportive Andi who jumped on. Along the way they realized they also needed, in addition to their creative and finance savvy brains, some IT prowess. That´s when Dominik and Chris became part of the gang and from there was no stopping them. While they all continued to finish their specific degrees, the idea remained a side hustle – albeit a very successful one.
