Wolfgang Seybold
Managing Director
Wolfgang has a banking background. But at a young age, he started his own business - corporate communication – and recognized that his early experiences as a stock market investor, mainly in junior mining companies, is a unique selling proposition for him, when it comes down to finding the right companies for his investor community. Being a promoter and an investment banker all wrapped up in one mind, he has always been a competent advisor in the field of corporate communication and corporate finance.
Wolfgang’s passion for sports, such as skiing, hiking, golfing and sailing gives him the needed work-life balance in a fast changing financial world. He has been teaching his family about buying physical precious metals and mining stocks since they were young. As they love traveling, the Seybolds have already visited several mining operations as a family.
Simone Seybold
Management Assistant
Simone has a banking background as well, but found her talents in organizing events and corporate procedures while she was focusing on her own business – being the family manager. Since 2015, Simone has been responsible for the group’s back office management and organizing events, such as in-person conferences, traveling and roadshows.
Simone’s favorite travel destinations are the Mediterranean Sea, as well as the Middle East. She likes the warmer climate zones when it comes to vacation, but when Wolfgang started his own business in 1996, traveling to New York, Toronto and Vancouver was also on her agenda. Not many women have attended the biggest mining convention in the world. Simone has attended the PDAC in Toronto and Cambridge House in Vancouver.
Helena Sator
Social Media Manager
Helena discovered her passion for creative, visual and communicative projects early on. Social media and the digital world offer her a wide range of opportunities. The skills she learned in her two degree programs in marketing and business management (bachelor's and master's degrees) often serves her well. Media and digitalization are in a constant state of flux - so standing still is not an option for Helena, and a constant learning process always offers new potential. The early step into self-responsibility has also clearly brought the topic of finance into focus for her.
One of Helena's personal wishes: to create inspiring ideas herself and also to bring exciting projects from interesting people into the world. Her love of animals and nature is the perfect balance to the world of digital work.
Jan Willhöft
Partner
Jan has a Bachelor’s Degree in marketing & digital media. At the age of 20, he started his own video agency, where he helped corporations with visibility on social media platforms, such as YouTube and Instagram to name a few. He is what insiders would call a media manager. At a young age and as an entrepreneur, it was clear to him that he was going to take control of the reins in his financial future. So, when he came across the axinocapital platform with its vision to invest in precious metals, he knew he wanted to use it as his life insurance. axinocapital identifies junior mining companies and small caps with huge growth potential for market out-performance and leveraged asset growth. As a media manager, Jan applies his broad experiences to marketing the axinocapital companies and, in parallel, increases his knowledge within the investor niche.
Jan likes traveling to foreign countries and eagerly combines his travels with site visits of axinocapital mining companies. That's why he spent twelve months in Australia upon graduating from high school. There he got to know the Australian mentality through work and travel. To maintain a good work/life balance, his weekly workout at the gym is never missed.

Franz Heinritzi
Geologist & Translator
After graduating at the Technical University of Munich (TUM) in Geology, Franz worked at McGill University in Montréal, Canada on several exploration projects including REE (Rare Earth Element) in Québec. He returned to Germany to work in the quality control department of a company producing analytical instruments used in the metal and chemical industries. For the last 30 years, Franz has lived in Canada working as a translator for the mining and technologies sectors where his geological and analytical background is a significant asset.
Franz enjoys the Canadian wilderness year-round, and through family camping trips, has been able to explore Canada from Vancouver to Newfoundland. However, during the summer months, he can often be found in his garden. He also loves to cook, especially if most of the ingredients were grown in his own garden.
