Munich · Deep Tech · DACH & France
You have built something real. Something frontier. Now it needs a path to market — and someone willing to go first, read the terrain, and cut the road through.
Let's talkWhat I do
01
Many deep tech ventures have a technology in search of its problem. I go out into the terrain — talking to buyers, mapping ecosystems, reading signals — and come back with a clear picture of where the commercial road should run.
02
Once the terrain is read, I cut the first path through it. Identifying the right accounts, building the right relationships, structuring the right conversations. Not advising from a distance — doing the work, on the ground.
03
You get a senior commercial operator without the full-time overhead. I work as part of your team — with full commitment to your mission — until the road is open and your own team can run on it.
I have spent 25 years carrying the lantern into terrain where no commercial map existed yet — from the first 2G data services and the rollout of WCDMA 3G networks, through the OFDM radio revolution of 4G and the shift to virtualised packet core with VoLTE, into enterprise AI and workflow automation, and now to the frontier: quantum, agentic AI, and sovereign infrastructure.
Today's frontier includes terrain that most commercial operators have never entered. I work at the intersection of 5G Standalone and post-quantum cryptography, where operators must begin hardening core networks before quantum threats materialise. I carry the lantern into QKD deployment and quantum-safe communication — translating deep physics into commercial conversations that enterprise buyers can act on.
I am not a consultant who hands you a strategy and leaves. I am the person who goes first — who reads the terrain before the main force moves, who cuts the first path, who stays until the road is real.
