Technology strategy

Adopt. Sell. Fund.

I translate complex technology into decisions people can act on.

AI adoption for enterprises. GTM, business model and investor readiness for startups. Board and public-sector advisory when the stakes are real.

Advisory

Enterprise AI. Startup GTM. Same bridge.

Enterprise teams need a path from pressure to adoption. Startup teams need a stronger business model, market story and investor logic. I help turn technical potential into decisions people can use.

Enterprise AI adoption

Use cases, ownership, data needs, build, buy or stop choices and a practical adoption roadmap.

Startup strategy and GTM

Business model, pricing, customer story, route to market and investor readiness.

Board and public-sector advisory

Practical AI and emerging-tech judgment for boards, agencies and industry initiatives.

Accelerator, jury and speaking work

Founder evaluation, pitch judging, program design and conference work where the business case has to hold up.

Formats

Buy a sharp decision. Scope the rest.

Fixed-price calls for fast senior input. Enterprise AI work, startup strategy and board advisory stay scoped, practical and tied to a decision.

Availability note

Independent advisory runs outside institutional commitments and depends on availability, mandate fit and conflict clearance. Compact formats are preferred; full-day work only by arrangement.

Advisory for boards, agencies and industry initiatives working on practical AI adoption.

Speaking, Jury and Panels

by inquiry

Conference talks, pitch jury work, panels and investor-facing formats around AI, startups, GTM and technology adoption.

Fit

Use me when the decision is real.

There should be an owner, a deadline and something meaningful at stake: adoption, GTM, funding, board judgment or public-sector work.

Good fit

  • DACH enterprises turning AI pressure into an adoption roadmap.
  • Boards, agencies and industry initiatives that need practical AI judgment.
  • Technical founders refining business model, GTM, pricing and investor story.
  • Accelerators that need stronger founder readiness, selection and demo-day quality.

Not a fit

  • Generic marketing retainers.
  • Idea-stage AI workshops without an owner, budget or test.
  • Pitch polish with weak business logic.
  • Technology theater without adoption, revenue or funding consequences.

Outcomes

The work should leave a decision behind.

A workshop or advisory call is only useful if it changes what happens next: the adoption path, the build-or-buy call, the investor story or the board decision.

01

AI adoption roadmap

Prioritized use cases, owners, data needs, risks and the next implementation path.

02

Build, buy or stop

A practical decision on what belongs inside the company, outside the company or nowhere at all.

03

GTM and investor logic

Sharper customer, pricing, route-to-market and funding logic for technical founders and accelerator teams.

04

Board-level translation

Clear language for boards and senior teams who need to understand what changes, what does not and what decision comes next.

Principles

No technology theater.

Start with the business problem. Then decide whether AI, software or another technology belongs in the solution.

I do not replace the technical team. I make sure the right problem, owner and adoption path are in place before more budget goes in.

I am not an AI engineer. I am technical enough to pressure-test AI and software work, and hands-on enough to build with it, including FieldProFlow.

No owner, no value.

Adoption needs operating logic, not just use cases.

Build, buy or stop should be explicit.

Complex technology must fit how people buy, fund and implement.

Bring the decision.

Send the context: what decision is on the table, who owns it, what happens if it stalls and which advisory lane fits.
