AI pilots work. Scaling them across organizations is the real challenge. That's the problem I'm solving. Most companies have proven AI can produce impressive results. What they haven't figured out is how to make those results trustworthy, controlled, efficient, and securely usable across the organization. The models aren't the bottleneck. The organization is. At SPACE44, we help companies build what's missing between "the pilot works" and "this runs in production": the operating layer around AI. Governance. Access control. Context management. Workflows. Cost control. Continuous improvement. Not more AI tools. Not more prompt engineering. An operating layer that makes existing AI initiatives controllable, secure, and scalable. We do this through PIPE44, our AI governance platform, combined with AI operations teams that deploy, run, and continuously improve it. Platform and team. Not one or the other. So companies can use AI to its full potential for their core business without having to become an AI company themselves. My path here wasn't a straight line. I started as a motorsport engineer at BMW, spent over 12 years leading the global Formula BMW program. From technical development to international growth strategy to partnerships in the Formula 1 ecosystem. I then built digital product companies before founding SPACE44 in 2017. What connects all of it: building complex systems in large structures that work under pressure, and scaling operations across teams, markets, and disciplines. Today everything I've learned about engineering, operations, and organizational scaling points to the same challenge: AI has evolved faster than organizations can govern it. The companies that win won't be the ones with the best models. They'll be the ones that make AI work safely and consistently across the organization. If that's the challenge you're facing, let's talk.
SPACE44 is an AI operations and implementation partner helping companies move from AI pilots to governed, scalable AI operations. We build the operating layer that's missing between "the pilot works" and "this runs in production": governance, access control, context management, workflows, and continuous improvement. We do this through PIPE44, our AI governance platform, combined with AI operations teams that deploy, run, and continuously improve it. Platform and team. Not one or the other. Previously, SPACE44 built and scaled international engineering teams for companies like ZEISS, BMW, Bayer, Allianz, and fast-growing startups across Europe and the US. That foundation in remote team operations, technical delivery, and organizational scaling is what powers our AI operations work today. Founded 2017. Munich.
