Description

I am a natural scientist and entrepreneur with all my heart. Many projects struggle or even fail because the scientific part requires attention to detail, while the entrepreneurial side needs market overview and pragmatism. I support entrepreneurs, founders, and investors in examining, evaluating, optimizing, and bringing technologies to market:

I am, so to speak, your external R&D department and support you, for example, with the following projects

=> Technology Audit:

- Verification of chemical-physical key figures for investors to minimize risk

- Planning and operational support of pilot projects and product development

=> CCS/CCU:

- Scientific support for the implementation of CO2 capture technologies and utilization, modification of processes, and the use and development of sustainable materials (e.g., bio-cement)

=> System Analyses in Geology: Action plans based on hydrogeological site data, data visualization, creation of concepts (e.g., remediation)

Strategic Transformation: Transformation into circular, value-adding systems, strategic realignment to ensure ESG compliance.

My passion for natural sciences, sustainable economy, and green transformation is supported by my creativity, my talent for pattern recognition and structuring, my empathy, my drive for perfectionism, and my awareness of the necessary pragmatism.
