I develop ideas.
And the software
to go with them.

01 / Another way of seeing

I build software, products and companies. I enjoy thinking things through with people who have something in mind — and getting to work together.

01 / From the workshop

Built. Tried.
Still curious.

An idea rarely stays an idea for long. A selection of what I’m working on.

02 / A little about me

I like understanding things.
And making them work.

For more than 30 years, I’ve been connecting technology, products and business. What keeps it interesting is the people — and the next good question.

Sometimes it takes a prototype. Sometimes, a good conversation first.

Why people come to me

A question is a good start

Software

Build or buy, legacy or greenfield — and what the code can really do once you look inside.

Product

What gets built and what deliberately doesn't — and how to tell early whether it holds.

Architecture

Scaling paths, interfaces, technical debt — and the interest it charges.

Organization

Teams, responsibility, speed: structure follows decisions, not the other way around.

Risk

Technical, regulatory, entrepreneurial — assessed realistically instead of moderated away.

Governance

Who decides, who controls, who is liable — settled before it matters.

Regulation

Compliance read as a design constraint — build it in early and you're faster later.

Investment

Cap table, valuation, roles: capital tied to work and responsibility.

Responsibility

The question behind all the others: who bears the consequences — and do they know?

03 / Ventures & people

Where my work
comes together.

pinkstone.group is at the core of my work. Alongside it, there is room for a product studio, advisory work, mentoring and smaller experiments.

At the core of my work

pinkstone.group

At PinkStone, I connect technology, product and growth. We work out what a venture needs, build the right solution and take responsibility for delivery. Our own products and investments grow out of this work, too.

Alongside it

01

Product studio · a PinkStone brand

fastercode.studio

A studio for business software. Five proven product lines, from CRM and AI operations to a support assistant, are adapted to each process. The whole product is handed over, including the source code. Support can be added as needed.

02

Advisory board

Hangar Strausberg

A place for AI, drones, autonomous systems, robotics and dual-use is taking shape at Strausberg airfield. It offers test environments where new developments can be tried out in practice. I support the venture as an advisory board member.

03

Personal

Mentoring

Part of my week belongs to founders and people responsible for teams. We work through decisions, product questions and how to work together. Confidentially and at a pace that fits. Sometimes over a walk.

Just say hello
04

Side project · exploring

xy foundry

A side project where I use AI to explore new business ideas. Small experiments that may grow into further ventures.

04 / Thoughts

A thought worth
staying with.

Observations from building, learning and working together. Often about AI, health and education. Always open to another perspective.

All thoughts

05 / Working together

Something
in mind?

I enjoy working with people who want to build something. An early idea is a perfectly good place to start.

Let’s get talking

Investment

as an investor who rolls up his sleeves: judgment, network, hands-on work — and sometimes capital.

Board & advisory

when technology, market and organization need to be judged together.

Mentoring

confidential, regular or one-off — for people building under pressure.

Co-building

when deep expertise should become a product or a venture.

Sparring

one concrete decision, a second pair of eyes, an honest verdict.

Early teams

even before product, even before funding — substance counts for more than maturity.

06 / Contact

A good start:
a few lines.

An idea, an open question or a project in progress. Two or three sentences are enough. I read and reply to messages myself.

Or connect on LinkedIn
