My professional Blue Ocean…

As Co-Founder of the company IOT Venture and via our brand IT´S MY BIKE (www.itsmybike.com) I strive towards an „own Blue Ocean“ . Through the combination of exploiting the mega-trend Internet-of-Things, using a new network technology and smart, problem-oriented services (theft protection, crash detection, insurances etc.) we have created a successful digital business model and a true „Value Innovation“.

My personal Blue Ocean…
…lies – with a wink– definitely in the daily exchange with my family including three kids of different age. Leaving the comfort zone and finding creative solutions for new challenges can be mentioned here as parallels to the Blue Ocean Framework. So you can see – acting in a Blue Ocean way is not that far away.
