Mykola Cheremisin

Mykola Cheremisin helps co-founders have the conversation they usually postpone. They decide who controls each kind of decision, what each person owes the business and how they will part if the shared plan fails. Based in Valencia, he works with Russian-speaking entrepreneurs in Ukraine, Europe and Kazakhstan.

For Cheremisin, a written agreement is the outcome of a harder process, not the process itself. He starts with motives, roles, money and uncomfortable future scenarios. Only when both partners can describe a decision in the same words does he put it into a document.
