Diego Lorenzo

Diego Lorenzo is the CEO and co-founder of the Philippines’ leading grab-and-go coffee chain Pickup Coffee, a startup that offers premium coffee at affordable prices. Founded in Jan 2022, Pickup Coffee began as a delivery-only brand serving locations around Metro Manila. It has since then expanded to launch physical stores – small stalls that resemble food trucks. The company now has over 60 branches across the Philippines. Pickup Coffee recently raised $40 million in its latest funding round from Go-Ventures, DSG Consumer Partners, and others. Prior to starting Pickup Coffee, Diego Lorenzo has served stints at various investment firms including Sierra Madre Private Equity, The Abraaj Group and HSBC. He earned his MBA (2016 – 2018) from The Wharton School.
