Fikret Karajic is a multidisciplinary founder and creative operator with a 20-year journey across software, real estate, branding, and urban development. With a lifelong passion for software tech, his deep backstory involves launching viral products as a teenager seeing over 150,000+ monthly actives long before he knew what a “startup” was. That early obsession with thoughtful, user-centered design now drives Karascope, his latest venture: a product studio pioneering experience-driven software built with purpose, intention, and emotional intelligence. Positioned as a creative counter to lifeless enterprise platforms and AI tools that automate away human nuance, Karascope develops software that feels intuitive, personal, and alive. Several of its first products are actively engineered to address real challenges in St. Louis—proving that impactful technology still begins with passionate founders, not algorithms or committees.

Beyond tech, Fikret helped scale Oliver Properties from the ground up—joining as its first team member and serving in multi-disciplinary roles across marketing, leasing, construction, operations, and investment strategy. A decade later, he played a key role in growing the firm to $200M+ in assets. Today, he serves a key role in the revitalization of the Wash Ave district in Downtown St. Louis, where he drives strategic investment efforts across multifamily, retail, and office to drive the development of a new, more connected Wash Ave urban neighborhood. Whether building products or places, his mission remains the same: to design systems, stories, and spaces that empower people—and leave a lasting mark on St. Louis.
