Co-founder, COO & CFO @ AIDAR | Operations Management Expert | Startup EnthusiastI am co-founding AIDAR, short for "AI-driven A&R", in the dual role of COO and CFO. AIDAR provides cutting-edge artist recommendations and insights for record labels using artificial intelligence. Our mission is to offer talent-seeking music professionals services that empower them to discover and nurture the next generation of artists - AI-driven. At AIDAR, I leverage my strategic, operations, and financial management expertise to guide our young start-up on its path to establishing innovative solutions in the music industry. I have always been curious about opportunities to make use of my operations management expertise in unique ways. Lately, as a PhD Candidate at the Kühne Logistics University, I solved practice-based operations problems for humanitarian organizations such as MSF (Doctors without Borders) and WFP (Word Food Programme). Prior, I gained experience in operations and supply chain management with organizations like Henkel, Groupe Renault and Bosch. Now, my curiosity and openness to new opportunities, made me seek and take on the challenges to co-found AIDAR as the operational lead.Let's Connect and Collaborate! Whether you are curious about the dynamics of the music-tech space or interested in sharing insights on operational and financial excellence, let's connect and explore the exciting synergies of music tech, the startup world, and operations management.
