Centuria315 was founded by Heinrich von Solms, an entrepreneur with a passion for collaboration, innovation, and creating commercial opportunities.

Today, Centuria315 combines strategic business development, market access, distribution, and commercial partnerships to help innovative products reach their full potential.
Heinrich believes that lasting success is built through collaboration, integrity, and persistence.
