🎉 Sleek is 7 years old! 🎉

Today we celebrate Adrien Barthel, Sleek’s co-founder and first CEO, who is currently leading Sleek Australia. 

Adrien co-founded the business with Julien Labruyere in 2017. The inspiration for Sleek stemmed from frustrations with the outdated processes of the corporate secretary industry at the time. For example, almost none had adopted e-signatures, despite their legalization in Singapore years prior. The industry was inefficient, expensive, and inundated with paperwork. 🖇 

Before starting Sleek, Adrien managed eCommerce for Carrefour (the world's 4th largest retailer) in Indonesia. He then led Marketing for Luxola, a beauty retail startup that was later acquired by Sephora, where he oversaw marketing for Southeast Asia.

🇸🇬 Adrien served as Sleek’s CEO during its first year, achieving product-market fit and securing the first 100+ clients. 
🇭🇰 He subsequently led the Growth team and relocated to Hong Kong in 2019 to establish Sleek’s presence there, now serving over 3,000 clients. 
🇦🇺 Last year, he moved to Sydney to accelerate our growth in one of the world’s largest SME markets.

“What has been fascinating for me over these 7 years is observing thousands of entrepreneurs start and grow their businesses. The true nature of Sleek is to empower entrepreneurs by freeing up their time to build their businesses or spend with their families. We achieve this by eliminating administrative hassles and providing insights to make informed decisions.

Having launched and managed operations in various markets, I've seen the same struggles faced by entrepreneurs worldwide. They all need more time to focus on growth, insights to make the right decisions, and timely filings!”

Today, we celebrate our investors.

It takes a village to raise a startup. Sleek wouldn’t have been possible without the support of our early backers who believed in this crazy project, and our late backers who helped it grow to new heights.

🌟 First Investor: Axel Foucault Axel was part of a group of angel investors who invested in our first seed round. Fun fact: he joined Sleek two years later and is now our COO. “I have invested in Sleek as I trusted Julien Labruyere, a serial entrepreneur, to know all the pain points of business owners to incorporate a company and to run it. I had confidence that he would be successful in setting up a new business where technology is enabling a human touch to offer a sleek and delightful experience to all business owners.”

🏅 Largest Investor: David Gowdey from Jungle Ventures David invested in Sleek because our services address a critical pain point for small businesses. “SMEs have limited resources, so software that helps them be more efficient can be transformative. Providing them with a customer support platform that can help answer their specific questions is truly differentiated and valued.”

We are deeply grateful for all our investors who have been part of our incredible journey. Here’s to many more years of growth and success together!
