Beschreibung

I help companies turn AI from a buzzword into a business advantage. Not as a traditional consultant, but as someone who has actually built and scaled a data/AI company from scratch.

My background: physician and neuroscientist turned tech entrepreneur. I co-founded and ran a pharma-tech company (120+ employees, €45M+ raised, global top-20 pharma clients), owning everything from product and engineering to fundraising and operations. I hold a Habilitation (post-doctoral qualification) and serve as Adjunct Professor in Digital Medicine.

What I bring to the table:

AI Strategy & Transformation: Workshops, roadmaps, and hands-on sparring for leadership teams navigating AI adoption. No slides without substance.

Digital Health & Life Sciences: Deep domain expertise at the intersection of medicine, data, and regulated industries.

Startup & Scale-up Advisory: Fundraising strategy, product-market fit, team building, investor relations. I've raised capital, hired 120+ people, and sold to enterprise clients.

I work best with CEOs, founders, and C-suite leaders who want a sparring partner with skin in the game, not a PowerPoint factory.

Co-founded and scaled a pharma-tech company from zero to 120+ employees, raising over €45M in funding. We built AI-powered real-world data platforms and omnichannel engagement solutions for global top-20 pharmaceutical companies, helping them make better decisions in R&D, market access, and product positioning.
As CMO, I owned the full operational scope: corporate strategy, fundraising & investor relations, product, data & engineering, medical affairs, finance, HR, and operations. Essentially, I built and ran the company end-to-end alongside my co-founder.
What this means for you: I don't advise from the sidelines. I've built and scaled a data/AI company hands-on, navigated enterprise sales cycles with global pharma, and made the hard calls on product, team, and capital allocation.
