As Chief Architect at Compart AG, I accompany the product strategy for customer communication from a technical perspective, with a focus on the interfaces between products and components, API governance, and the portfolio transformation from a traditional batch-oriented offering to a cloud-native and transactional world. I have over 20 years of experience in the areas of knowledge management, digital publishing, typography and font technology, complemented by 12 years of experience in the domain of document and output management for large enterprises, especially in the insurance and financial sector. After my studies in Canada (physics, mathematics and history) I have obtained a doctorate in history of science and technology in 2002 in Germany.
