He went on to find other companies, including NXN Digital Entertainment GmbH, which was sold to Avid Technology Inc. in 2004 and Kappa I.T. Ventures, a venture capital firm that advises European and American technology firms towards an IPO or trade sale. He is currently an executive at conject AG in Munich, Germany, a company specializing in software for the real estate and construction industry. He leads expansion, international growth, acquisitions, new product strategy and financing.
