About Solpace

Solpace is the sovereign operating system for independent electronic music, nightlife culture, and underground dancefloors.

We are building the digital infrastructure that returns financial sovereignty, data intelligence, and creative power to artists, independent venues, and fans across Europe.

Today, independent clubs and creators are squeezed by extractive ticketing platforms charging 10 to 15 percent fees, and streaming services paying fractions of a cent per play. We are building the sovereign alternative.

What We Are Building (Your Domain)

• Zero-Commission Artist Wedge: Onboarding independent record labels, DJs, and electronic artists with 0 percent music sales commission and automated instant splits (Smart Splits).

• Underground Venue & Promoter Infrastructure: Bringing independent clubs, festival organizers, and underground promoters onto our offline-resilient ticketing, rotating QR gates, and private club compliance tools.

• Data-Driven Booking Partnerships: Demonstrating our Yield Forecasting and listener density models to booking agencies and promoter collectives to eliminate financial booking risk.

• Stockholm-Berlin Expansion: Leading commercial rollout, promoter onboarding, and strategic cultural partnerships across the Stockholm-Berlin corridor and Northern Europe.

What You Will Co-Own

• Go-To-Market & B2B Partnerships: Building direct relationships with venue owners, club managers, festival directors, and record label collectives.

• Commercial Strategy & Pricing: Validating ticketing tiers, SaaS promoter models, and fee structures that undercut legacy monopolies while keeping Solpace highly profitable.

• Investor Relations & Fundraising: Leading dialogues with angel investors, top European venture capital funds, and incubators as we gear up for acceleration.

• Community Growth & Grassroots Rollout: Orchestrating launch campaigns, promoter affiliate networks, and waitlist activation.

Who We Are Looking For

• Background: Top business university (e.g. Stockholm School of Economics / SSE, WHU Otto Beisheim, University of Mannheim, Frankfurt School of Finance, KTH IndEk) or proven commercial dealmaking track record in the music, events, or tech industries.

• Industry passion: Real roots in or genuine love for underground electronic music, club culture, and live event production.

• Commercial drive: You are energized by closing partnerships, getting out into the scene, meeting promoters, and building a venture from the ground up.

Compensation & Commitment

• Substantial Co-founder Equity stake (standard vesting with cliff).

• Flexible commitment: ~10 hours/week alongside finishing studies, master's degree, or day job, transitioning into full-time.

• Strong foundation from day zero: working codebase, clean architecture, and real audio pipelines, not just a pitch deck.

• Location: Stockholm, Berlin, or Remote across the European Economic Area (EEA).
