→ About me


Hi, my name is Cyrus Bohn but I assume you already knew that.





I’m currently working on start-ups that bring technology to the built environment. Previously, I worked at Tesla where I ran operations and strategy in DACH and Eastern Europe scaling our footprint from 20 to 100+ locations.





I love scaling operations, growing people, and storytelling through branding and business development. Industry wise, I’m particularly interested in the intersection of technology and the built environment and occasionally share my thoughts.

Westside Running Club

  • After moving to an entirely new neighbourhood in Berlin (Wilmersdorf) I wanted to meet new people and build a local community. That’s why I started a small, low threshold weekly running club in our lovely park Volkspark Wilmersdorf. Find us on Strava!
