• Co-Founder | CEO

  • Jan 2013 - Jul 2018

  As co-founder and CEO throughout the early stage phases I was responsible for transforming the team’s ideas into a working company. This included negotiating and closing several investment rounds as well as public grants/subsidies and pitching our company to investors in both public and private environments. It also meant representing the company in procedures and talks with regulatory agencies and creating internal structures and administrative processes from scratch (e.g. legal, hiring, accounting, market launch). In the later stages I focussed on the strategic/legal challenges arising in the growth phase, including medical device regulation and data protection laws as well as research partnerships necessary for healthcare reimbursement. Being part of and leading an enthusiastic interdisciplinary team has been rewarding both professionally and emotionally. Our cooperation with major healthcare providers, insurance companies and university researchers has given me experience in dealing with the peculiarities of the emerging eHealth market, insights in the vast potential for scalable products in an aging society as well as the skill set to deal with the associated regulatory and legal challenges (think e.g. GDPR) in an efficient manner. Building a company from scratch has also given me a special opportunity to further develop my practical legal skills, as being in charge of the diverse incoming legal tasks meant often personally creating and executing legal documents in various fields of law in the initial startup-phase.
