As CEO and founder of dkd Internet Service GmbH in Frankfurt, I've been delivering digital value for over 25 years. My company specializes in creating complex
web solutions using TYPO3 and e-commerce platforms based on Shopware. Together with our 60 specialized professionals, we've completed over 1,400 projects for ver 775 customers.
I'm also proud to have served as the President of the TYPO3 Association since 2014, helping shape the future of this powerful open-source CMS. My background combines studies in political sciences, law, and computer science from the University of Frankfurt, giving me a multifaceted perspective on digital transformation. I'm fluent in German and French, professionally proficient in English, and have a working knowledge of Spanish.
My expertise lies in project management, infrastructure, and large organizations. I have deep knowledge of TYPO3 CMS, Apache Solr, web infrastructure, backends, and data platforms. I believe in delivering digital value through agile methodologies and eye-level cooperation to achieve meaningful business results.
Digital Innovation and Value Creation
Throughout my career, my driving force has been more than just creating digital solutions - it's about delivering tangible value that transforms businesses. When I founded dkd Internet Service GmbH in 1998, I envisioned a company that wouldn't just build websites but would architect digital futures. This is reflected in our track record of 1,400+ successful projects, where each solution was crafted to impact our client's business goals directly. My commitment to #deliveringdigitalvalue isn't just a hashtag - it's a promise that guides every project we undertake. True digital transformation happens when technology serves business objectives, not vice versa.
Open Source Community Leadership
My role as TYPO3 Association President since 2014 stems from a deep belief in the power of open-source collaboration. This isn't just about software - it's about fostering an ecosystem where innovation thrives through community effort. When I took on this leadership role, my goal was to strengthen TYPO3's position as a leading CMS while ensuring the community's growth and sustainability. By serving on the supervisory board of TYPO3 GmbH and leading the association, I've worked to align commercial success with community values. I'm particularly passionate about this because I believe open-source software represents the best technology can offer - collaborative innovation that benefits everyone.
