Biography
My life has been about cleantech for the past 10 years, and even before that. Basically, I have dedicated my studies and work to this topic, as my biggest passion is to see the transformation of the human culture towards being nature sensitive and anticipative. Nature offers us the perfect design and it is our most important business partner, so let’s finally start working with her, creating the ultimate productivity and quality of life. How did I become me? When studying in Vienna, I attended the coolest courses in the area of environmental / ecological economics, climate change or innovations / competitiveness which can drive this cleantech revolution. Being alumni member of Oikos (global student organization on promoting sustainability for students of economics and management), YES (Youth Encounter on Sustainability – network operated by such institutions as ETH Zürich, MIT or Tokyo University), BMW Foundation (selected as an young leader), DSA (Deutsche Schülerakademie network under the auspices of President of Germany), or as partner of Team Finland in Slovakia, I am more than eager to explore the world of cleantech. The problems I solve Now I am happy to start being an entrepreneur as R&D manager in Solved – The Cleantech Company. For the past 8 years I worked as Finpro’s Global Industry Analyst specializing in cleantech markets. Besides active consulting done for the Finnish cleantech SMEs, I was also an active member of the Cleantech Finland team from its very beginning in 2008 – bringing it to the world of social / digital media and co-creating the digital tool Solved. From industry point of view, I actively deal with questions & topics such as green ICT, sustainable energy systems, smart cities, etc. Besides my home – Slovakia – I have lived in the USA, China, Austria and my “second home” – Finland.
