Bio
Matthias Patzak
I had the please to work together with Stefan for several years as he has been the Account Manager at AWS for my company while we were doing a very challenging project to shift our whole tech stack to cloud native. Stefan was always very focussed, helpful and available when we needed him. Especially when he managed to bing us to the Executive Summit at re:invent 2014. This was a really helpful event for us. He is driven by serving the customer. I would love working together with Stefan again at any time.

I have a strong belief that it is extremely difficult to create value added to customers without a good network! In that sense I'm more than pleased that a friend of ours led Stefan and myself to know each other. Last spring we had a case in which we needed a partner in Germany to help our customer get a better understanding of the local market. The results gained well exceeded our customer's expectations. What is even more important is that Stefan brought on top his own high expertise Ralph to team who had a very deep understanding in selected areas. That's something I highly appreciate - know where you are good and put any effort to make sure the customer gets more he expects. That is what Stefan materialized in our joint project!
