Good ideas were never the problem

Good ideas were never the problem

The value is in executing them

Hi, I am Nicolas Kittner.
I help established companies banks, insurers, energy operators and industrial Mittelstand build new businesses and new revenue streams. AI is the lever; entrepreneurial building is the method.

I've done it before, at LVM, at Sparkasse, at Enpal: founding new businesses inside large organisations and running them with founder speed, while respecting the reality of legacy IT, compliance and governance.

I've done it before
