FROM PASSION TO IMPACT
Driven by passion
Marc Ebinger is on an exciting journey that is about to accelerate once again: From starting his mebiSURF school to founding RIMASYS, which he and his two co-founders built from a small lab into a globally operating company that was later strategically sold to the global AO Foundation – his commitment to growth and impact drives him today even more than it did back then. After experiencing an emotional low, Marc found new strength and now pursues his passion for surfing and, especially, the art of entrepreneurship with even greater determination.
As a future-driven optimist, Marc inspires and encourages passionate founders and decision-makers to boldly pursue their visions and create real impact. There is no better time than now to shape a future full of opportunities and take responsibility for actively building a better world.
INSPIRE
Inspiration begins where the comfort zone ends. As a passionate surfer and successful entrepreneur, Marc inspires through engaging and authentic keynotes, deep-dive podcasts, and impressive media productions. His powerful story – from the highs and lows at RIMASYS to the successful exit and the bold decision to become a big-wave surfer – motivates future shapers to move forward with courage, grow personally, and create real impact.

EMPOWER
From ‘what if it fails’ to ‘what if it flies.’ Marc is an investor and catalyst for change in impact-driven startups in the fields of environment, education, and health. He supports founders on their personal growth journey – from the initial idea to a professionalized scale-up. As a sparring partner with a strong network, he helps turn visions into reality. He has experienced this journey himself: from starting with an idea in a small lab to achieving a successful exit – and he knows exactly how to overcome both professional and personal challenges to achieve long-lasting success.

SURF
Surfing has a lot in common with growing a startup: You have to step out of your comfort zone every day. Entrepreneurs and surfers alike face unpredictable challenges. Each wave is a one-time opportunity, and if you don’t take it, it’s gone forever. The bigger the wave, the more exhilarating the ride – but also the greater the risk. Yet, falling is often not as bad as it seems and gives you the confidence to paddle out for even bigger waves. Every wave makes you stronger – just like chasing ‘Surfing Unicorns’ in the startup world. On a personal growth level, it’s pretty comparable, right?

“WHATEVER HAPPENS – I AM NOT AN OBSERVER. I MAKE DECISIONS AND TAKE ACTION AND RESPONSIBILITY TO TURN MY LIFE FROM ORDINARY TO EXCEPTIONAL.”
