I work on impact finance, business models with a societal impact and societal innovation. I facilitate system change initiatives, collective impact and blended value partnerships for impact. I enjoy helping bring new ideas to life and connect necessary resources and people to make it happen. I am inspired by the potential of entrepreneurship, innovation and capital to address tough societal challenges at scale and sustainably. I hope to make a small contribution to the much needed paradigm shift in the way we do business, take financing decisions and act as leaders in our societies!I work with partners from public, private, social and academic sector in Germany, Europe and emerging countries globally. At EVPA (now Impact Europe) I co-initiated Investing for Development, set up EVPAs Transformative Finance Initiaitve and led the design of a Transformative Finance Lab, a space to co-create financing solutions for impact.
