Markus Schorn has been dealing with the fundamental effects of technological progress on Western society in general and business enterprises in particular throughout his career. His activities and accomplishments center around the interactions and interrelationships between the worlds of technology and business. Markus has successfully guided the market launch of a number of groundbreaking innovations, using a broad range of business models for both enterprises and consumer segments. Thanks to these achievements, he has become a highly regarded adviser for corporate decision-makers, and a mentor for German startups.
I have decided to do what is possible, within my limited power, to change this situation. My venture capital firm Freigeist only invests in Startups, which have the potential to support Europe in regaining and maintaining its position as a major economic force – every Startup must tackle a major challenge and work on a scalable and meaningful solution. My aim and passion in life is to contribute to the development of an urgently needed thriving European Technology Ecosystem.
