Creating Together – Because Innovation Never Rests 🚀

I truly believe that big ideas don’t just need capital – they need a strong network, trust, and real sparring. That’s exactly why I’ve been passionately committed to Würth Elektronik since 2017.

Driven by our motto "more than you expect!", we don’t just support start-ups – we build genuine partnerships at eye level. With hands-on experience in start-up collaboration, we offer hardware, know-how transfer, design-in support, and access to a vast technology ecosystem.

From electronic and electromechanical components to wireless communication modules and sensors – our portfolio supports applications in areas like vertical farming, indoor algae cultivation, biodiversity monitoring, lifestyle & healthcare products, industrial IoT, and new mobility. Innovative electronics are key to solving today’s and tomorrow’s challenges.

🎯 My mission? Helping founders not just bring their ideas to market – but scale them. Fast, agile, and with the backing of a strong group.

What drives me?
Having spent many years in the industry, I’ve helped set up production sites, led open innovation processes, and implemented certified integrated management systems. Today, I use that experience to create space for innovation – and to connect people who want to make a real impact.

I'm convinced: when business, start-ups, science, and courage come together, progress happens. That’s what I live and breathe – at Würth Elektronik, as a mentor in various accelerators and incubators, as a network partner, and as a guest lecturer in start-up hubs and universities.

Are you working on a hardware-based start-up, looking for support – or just someone who truly believes in your idea?
