My mission as a keynote speaker: "Inspiring People"

My mission is to create a spirit of optimism. I motivate, inspire, and in my keynote I show opportunities and solutions with concrete and comprehensible examples from industry.

Digitization is the topic, the challenge and the opportunity of our time. It’s less about technology and more about the right mindset and the right strategy, attitude and self-efficacy, which I convey in my keynotes. Let’s go on a journey together: I’ll show you the possibilities, methods and opportunities and motivate you and your employees/participants. IP is everywhere and very few understand the context.
