About myself: I am a passionate engineer and entrepreneur with twenty years of experience in designing, architecting, and developing software and hardware solutions. Over the course of ten years in the German automotive industry, I led the creation and successful launch of innovative products in various areas, including vehicle control, telematics, M2M, and data analytics. My passion for technology dates back to my youth, when I wrote my first C program on an 80286 machine at the age of fourteen – twelve years after, I launched my first commercial RF-based M2M system with 200 connected vehicles. I enjoy solving complex problems and improve people’s lives with technology and smart solutions.
