I have been living and working for 20 years in Asia-Pacific. I am fluent in Chinese and have been active as well as in investing in startups as well as mentoring startups through the German Accelerator. My core competency is running technical sales, service, applications engineering operations in the capital investment goods and analytical instrumentation space, such as life science, food, pharma and material science. In addition I have extensive M&A and post-merger integration experience. I am good at leveraging my network to find access to markets and expertise.
