Impact Developer &
Innovation Designer

Way Of working

Embedded Advisor

Other than external advisors, Mark amplifies the impact potential of the people and organization FROM WITHIN bringing INSPIRATION and CLARITY.

He walks ALONGSIDE of impact makers in a discovery-led CO-LEARNING journey. Therein he CONNECTS them with a strong internal and external network of partners and supporters, inspires them with IDEAS and helps them drive change through PILOT projects.  

He is trusted and recommended by his OWN JOURNEY as intrapreneur in shaping Collaborative Corp. Innovation, Impact Programs, Data Cooperatives, LivingLabs, Open Science ventures, and projects that merge tech and HUMAN AGENCY.

Academic leaders, social innovators, NGOs, and universities call Mark when they need someone to NAVIGATE decentralized organizations and make complex (data) ecosystems ACCESSIBLE for own people to elevate their ideas.

He works with the organization leadership to adapt WORKING ARCHITECTURES, such as policies, processes and strategic narratives to free up time, recognize impact makers and provide them project support.

Instead of public branding, Mark is mostly ASKED INTO his engagements when impact programs need to turn concepts and complexity among society, technology, and trust into clarity and successful pilot projects.

Collaborative Data & AI Innovation

„An agent economy“

The internet, social media and the platform economy optimized existing business processes globally. The creators economy advances decision-making to a level that challenges „human agency“.

Innovation has to become more responsible, trust building, respecting (data) sovereignty, shaping new participative economic models and handling Data and AI models as digital assets.
