Hamburg, Hamburg, Germany
Managing Partner with over 10 years of experience in M&A consulting and in building and scaling advisory business models. My focus is on the successful structuring and implementation of buy-side and sell-side transactions for medium-sized companies in international technology markets. In my role at Board Advisors AG, I have commercial responsibility for the M&A advisory business—including origination, client acquisition, revenue and growth management, and team leadership and development. I am responsible for the entire transaction cycle, from initial contact to positioning and negotiation to successful closing. A key focus is on active business development and building long-term relationships with entrepreneurs, board members, private equity investors, and strategic buyers. In doing so, I combine analytical depth (valuation, equity story, investment case) with clear sales-oriented implementation. In addition, I have extensive experience in project and team management of parallel transactions, in managing interdisciplinary project teams, and in establishing efficient internal processes. My goal is to successfully reward clients for their long-standing entrepreneurial efforts and accomplishments.
