“Digitalizing business processes is the core value that digital transformation offers organizations. Our mission is to design solutions that achieve this objective.”

What is your role at valantic?

As the co-founder and managing director of valantic STI, I play a vital role in driving our company’s growth and shaping its strategic direction—and will continue to do so in the future. I believe digital transformation is crucial for business success, and our mission is to guide our customers throughout this journey.

What do you understand by “success,” and what motivates you?

To me, success lies in harnessing creativity, performance, and quality to turn skepticism into enthusiasm. This success resonates with everyone involved, such as our customers, employees, and the company. I see it as one of my key responsibilities to nurture an environment where this success can thrive.

What are your main responsibilities at valantic?

In my role overseeing sales, business development, and delivery, building trust with customers while fostering enthusiasm and a sense of security among employees is paramount to me.

Markus, what did you do before joining valantic?

I studied geophysics at J.-W.-Goethe University in Frankfurt and earned my doctorate at the Free University of Berlin. Following my academic career at GFM German Research Center For Geosciences in Potsdam and Oregon State University, I switched to IT in 1999, holding positions at S.E.S.A. AG and TietoEnator. In 2007, I co-founded SyroCon AG with Markus Hartmann to pursue my true passion: building a customer-centric business that develops value-added solutions through direct dialogue with its customers.
