Founded by Vadims, CarMonitor offers a comprehensive fleet management system enhanced with automated CO₂ emissions tracking for any land-based vehicle. But the innovation doesn't stop there — the platform also features a digital twin model that helps companies simulate their transition from internal combustion engines to electric vehicles using real-world data. This allows for accurate estimations of transition costs, charging infrastructure needs, and long-term savings.

When CarMonitor pitched during the NGL Riga event back in March 2025, they were looking for both growth and investment advisors to guide their next big step — fundraising. Enter Stefano, an experienced entrepreneur and investor with a strong background in SaaS, automotive industries, and global business consulting. With a track record that includes launching the Italian branch of MicroStrategy and involvement in 14 M&A deals and 10 startups, Stefano saw a clear alignment with CarMonitor’s vision and potential.

Now working closely together, Vadims and Stefano are preparing for CarMonitor’s pre-seed fundraising round. Stefano brings not just his experience but also his insight as an angel investor to help position CarMonitor’s pitch to resonate with investors. “The value is there — now it's about presenting it the right way,” he says, emphasizing the importance of strategic storytelling and data-driven messaging in securing funding.

With aligned visions and complementary skill sets, this partnership is a powerful example of how the right advisor can accelerate a startup's journey toward growth and impact. Stay tuned — CarMonitor is just getting started.
