Vita

In their presentations, the start-up duo, Dr Valentin Langen and Philipp Gross, inspire with a firework of best-practice impulses for innovation, digitalization and leadership. The experienced managers are members of the leadership team of a global market leader in plant engineering, head the company's innovation lab and also run Germany's most prominent corporate start-up. However, this has nothing to do with plant engineering, but develops smart sun cream. The start-up has been nominated for numerous innovation and digitalization awards. Dr. Langen is a lecturer in innovation and leadership at Zeppelin University and, together with Philipp Gross, a member of the innovation advisory boards of medium-sized companies. Both are experts in intrapreneurship and transformation. They combine strategy and leadership concepts from Harvard Business School with observations from everyday business life and, with their open and personal manner, inspire people to break new ground.
