At Open Future Lab, I helped shape the lab, build an interdisciplinary team and define a dynamic framework for societal change. We focus on research and design, addressing people’s needs, dreams and challenges, while keeping an eye on future trends. We foster new partnerships and aim to inspire industry and civil organisations with our insights to amplify impact.

My journey began in strategic project and programme management roles at organisations like Erste Group, Hewlett Packard and OMV. Building high-performing teams and delivering innovative solutions were pivotal stages that shaped my entrepreneurial mindset and fuelled my passion for transformative change.

A recent change that inspired me was witnessing the rapid digital transformation in public services during the pandemic. Seeing technology bridge critical gaps in education and healthcare re-energised my commitment to using innovation to empower society and create lasting impact.
