ABOUT ANDREAS
Andreas helps companies and governments tell their story with impact – by moderating and hosting high level events and through his keynote speeches. As a seed investor he works with start-up companies during the early phases of their ventures.
He hosted events at the United Nations Headquarters in New York; with CEOs of blue chip companies, including Joe Kaeser from Siemens; with heads of governments, including Angela Merkel; as well as royalties and celebrities, including Prince Daniel from Sweden.
Andreas helps us connect with the financial community and international media. As a moderator he translates strategy into plain language, helping us tell our story effectively and to highly diverse audiences.
Previously, he acted as international spokesperson for Siemens and worked on communications for financial transactions with a deal value of US$16bn. He has experience in investment banking and in advertising and marketing, through work for JPMorgan Chase, in London, and for the advertising firm Ogilvy & Mather, in New York, respectively.
He spent seven years in journalism, as a print and broadcast reporter, receiving the CNN journalist award for his international work. He reported from Russia and China among other countries and published extensively on technology and innovation topics, including Blockchain, Cybersecurity and Artificial Intelligence.
Andreas builds bridges between governments and the private sector. He balances the requirements of protocol with the need for a high level of audience engagement. No topic seems too complex for him to break down in an easy to understand way – for both senior ministers and business leaders from all over the world.
One of his passions is modern and classical theatre – his PhD was on 18th century literature. He enjoys travelling, hiking, and biking, in particular in Patagonia, the Colombian Andes and the Bavarian Alps. Andreas grew up in Germany and had opportunities to spend time abroad from a young age, including some schooling in France, Italy and China. He currently lives in London.
