I have established corresponding service organizations and successfully led blockchain projects. In 2015, I founded Blockchain Meetup Saxony, which now has more than 1,600 active members. https://www.meetup.com/de-DE/BlockchainMeetupSaxony In 2017, I was one of the founding sponsors of the Blockchain Competence Centre at Mittweida University of Applied Sciences via T-Systems MMS, and I supported the establishment of the blockchain department at BITKOM. I have worked as a consultant on two blockchain funding projects for German federal ministries: one for the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) as part of ‘WIR’ and the ‘Blockchain Showcase Region Mittweida’, and another for the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs (BMWi) as part of the ‘ID-Ideal’ project within the ‘Secure Digital Identities’ initiative. My involvement ranged from ideation and concept development to application, funding allocation (two projects of €15 million each), and the ongoing implementation for the city of Mittweida and Mittweida University of Applied Sciences. I also worked for almost three years at the blockchain startup slock.it/Blockchains LLC. My experience at Blockchains LLC and slock.it led me to create a podcast series on decentralized finance, which I run together with Thor Alexander: https://defi.jetzt.
