Go-to-Market, Business Development & Strategic Partnerships for Deep Tech

I support deep-tech and industrial technology companies in turning technology capabilities into concrete market opportunities, customer access and strategic partnerships.

With 30+ years of international experience across semiconductors, automotive, advanced manufacturing and technology ecosystems, I work primarily at the intersection of strategy and execution – helping companies move from market opportunity to actionable go-to-market activities.

My work typically includes:

• Market and ecosystem development – identifying attractive markets, applications, accounts and ecosystem players
• Go-to-market strategy and execution – translating technology capabilities into target applications and commercial pathways
• Business development – target-account identification, qualification, customer access and opportunity development
• Strategic partnerships – identifying and developing OEM, technology, integration and ecosystem partnerships
• International market access – particularly across Europe/DACH, North America and Asia
• Executive-level market intelligence – connecting technology trends, customer requirements and competitive developments with strategic decisions

My current focus includes semiconductors and advanced manufacturing, advanced packaging, photonics, Physical AI, sensing, autonomous systems, robotics, AI-based simulation and validation, and industrial/dual-use technologies.

I am interested in connecting with technology companies that have strong capabilities or products but need to accelerate market entry, build customer access, develop strategic partnerships or establish a stronger position within an industry ecosystem.

My approach is hands-on and execution-oriented: from market intelligence and target selection through stakeholder access and engagement to concrete business opportunities.
