For more than 4 years I worked as Strategic Adviser EMEA for the 3D printing world market leader Stratasys. I am currently an advisor to the US company Chromatic3d and the Israeli company Nano-Dimension.
I gain insights into this future technology on a daily basis. Be it at the most important 3D printing trade fair Formnext, during company visits or at congresses in Europe or the USA: this results in unique experience regarding the use, benefits, challenges and unimagined opportunities of this technology. 3D printing is also considered a key technology of Industry 4.0 and the Internet of Things.
I am familiar not only with the technical development, but also with the challenges at company level and in terms of employees.
My services
Expert knowledge, deep insight

Foundings and memberships
As a member of the working groups of leading associations and development drivers, I have my finger on the pulse. I have also taken part in several 3D printing trips organized by government agencies, e.g. in Israel and the USA. I helped set up a 3D printing certificate course for the DIHK/IHK. I regularly hold webinars such as: "Additiv im Südwesten" and also German and English padcasts about 3D printing.

- Acting as an agent for suitable cooperation partners in the field of 3D printing.
- Manufacturer/technology/fields of application: Who is the appropriate manufacturer for solving your problem?
- Spare parts management: Why you don't need large inventories anymore.
- Who is the long-term winner in the 3D sector?
- Why the technology should not be viewed from the perspective of material only.

Finding optimal cooperation partners
In addition to handling the technology optimally, the mindset in companies has to be changed, fears have to be assuaged. Digital natives and digital immigrants – you will find both groups among your employees, and I can offer many years of experience in different kinds of change-management consulting.
