Gauthier

Gauthier Van Malderen is founder and CEO of Perlego, the London-headquartered subscription service that gives students and professionals unlimited access to academic and professional ebooks, built through partnerships with publishers including Wiley and Bloomsbury. Textbooks have long been priced as though every reader needs to own them forever; Perlego applied a subscription model to a market that had never had one. He studied at Bocconi and took a master's at Cambridge. Gauthier brings Pact first-hand experience of scaling a European consumer subscription business, and a working knowledge of publisher relationships and content-licensing economics. Perlego was a seed investment of Pact GP Tong Gu during her time at ADV, giving the relationship a long history.
