25+ years experience at the frontier of innovation and transformation as a founder, from roles in consulting and VC, startups & corporates, as well as in applied research. Global footprint across Europe, the US, Asia, and the Middle East. I develop new solutions at the intersection of products & services, business, and operating models. Skaling & Transformation by building people and technology skills has been a key element of my work. A few years ago I started my own consulting business and became an entrepreneur and investor to do innovation in the platform economy. I initiated & cofounded Untitled INC Think Tank & Ventures with a particular focus on Crypto and Blockchain. We advise in this space and launched a number of ventures. Recent examples include:- Advising on Digital Transformation by leveraging my network and extensive cross-functional and cross industries know-how - Building a global ecosystem of technology and service providers as well as institutions for an Industry 4.0 Tech Center and Platform targeted to transform the industry of a top 20 economy- Doing advisory on Web3, Token Economy and Digital Assets for Investors, Corporates and Startups- Launching Ventures & building companies with colleagues from Untitled INC & beyond, for instance, Liquiditeam a web 3 content & community management software for Fan engagement and Financing for sports & the creator economy or gr33nBASE the renewable finance platform for green products & solutions, carbon credits and investments- Driving technology adoption by engaging as a co-producer in ventures like Cryptopiafilm (where I am a co-producer) or the Blockchain Research AcceleratorHow did I get there? My professional journey started with studies and work experiences in Stuttgart, London, Paris, and Berlin in the areas of mechanical and industrial engineering as well as applied computer science. I have mostly been working at the intersection of Business/Processes, Technology/IT, and Organization. Initially, my focus was on building & coding for deep tech projects in areas like Artificial Intelligence & software development for Engineering Design and R&D (3D Modelling, Constraint-based Reasoning on complex variable networks to optimize techno-economic solution spaces). Advisory in areas like Enterprise Planning & Control, SaaS, and IoT as well as Organizational Design (Business Intelligence, Process & Organizations Mapping) in Applied Research complemented these skills before I moved to Digital transformation consulting and my work with startups doing innovation in the platform economy.
