You can learn more about me at: https://www.linkedin.com/in/florianernst/

After founding, building, and exiting two (tech) startups, I am currently in the process of identifying and defining concepts for a new venture. In general, I am also open to joining an existing early-stage startup (ideally tech-related). Most important for me are the right people with the right attitudes and aspirations. I am looking for someone/people easy to work with that possesses a “can do” mentality even towards solving the most sophisticated challenges and is/are aspired to create a big and lasting impact with their work – according to the people I worked with, this is what also reflects my own personality.

In the past three years, I acted as a co-founder and CEO of an IoT cyber security startup responsible for all business-related tasks (business development, funding acquisition, product management, sales, etc.). Prior to this, I built a startup that uses Artificial Intelligence for scenario planning, handling the same tasks as mentioned above. Before my work as an entrepreneur, I worked for two years as a strategic management consultant with one of the leading consultancies, one year as a digital transformation engineer with a premium OEM, and three and a half years as a mechatronics engineer with another premium OEM. Therefore, I possess strong competencies in business and management as well as engineering with deep technical competencies. I am happy to get in contact with you!!!
