I advise companies on topics regarding digital transformation and show a hands on mentality doing so. I build upon 10+ years experience in the metals industry with constant growth and interests in new topics. I founded companies, built up teams and implemented new business models in a traditional industry. During that time, I gained experiences in different forms of organizations: startups, family owned "hidden champions" and multinational conglomerates.Having a background that crosses borders - both topic wise as well as having worked and studied in an international context for two decades - new challenges, cultures, technologies and businesses fascinate me and help me grow.Currently I founded new company tackling the important issue of secondary raw materials - happy to share my experiences or connect to talk about potential business opportunities.
