Hey, I'm Tomasz Żernicki


Co-founder of Zylia, an award-winning 3D audio technology company, and Founder of My3Daudio Ventures.

I specialize in helping audio and deep technology startups navigate their unique challenges in IT, hardware, consumer electronics, and SaaS.

As a pioneer in audio technology, I’ve had the privilege of collaborating with industry giants like Huawei, Fraunhofer, and Dolby. This journey led me to become an internationally recognized MPEG expert, where I co-authored multiple patents and contributed to global audio standards.

But my path was not a typical success story...

I have experienced the immense pressures of the startup world firsthand – from rapid growth to navigating complex investor relationships and fighting for survival against hostile takeover attempts. These experiences, though incredibly challenging, gave me a unique, battle-tested perspective that goes far beyond standard business coaching.

My story is one of resilience. Here’s how the lessons I’ve learned can help you succeed...
