Advisory Board

Even before movingfutures was founded, there have always been people who have made a deep impression on us and, although they often don't know it themselves, have played a part in bringing us here today.
It fills us with great gratitude to have these people on our advisory board. In particular, our academic advisory board members provide the content-related link to their scientific fields - this is how we stay on the cutting edge of current research. All members of the advisory board support us in our own strategic decisions, collaborate in projects and actively contribute their expertise and experience: For the benefit of movingfutures and our clients.

Prof. Dr. Guido Baltes

"I'm there when the future is created - and that's exactly what happens at movingfutures."

The first time we saw Guido on a stage, we were sure: We can learn a lot from him - In numerous interactions, this has been sustainably confirmed.

Guido is the director of the IST Innovation Institute at the University of Applied Sciences Konstanz, Visiting Professor at UIBE University in Beijing and Rady School of Management at the University of California in San Diego. He is also part of various supervisory boards and has already (co-)founded several start-ups and led them to sustainable success.

Guido is a Swiss Army Knife when it comes to innovation, strategy and business development - we look forward to benefiting from his diverse impulses and experiences and to growing with (or because of) him.

Dr. Roman Bauer

„Lass uns gemeinsam wachsen”

Roman was the first professional mentor of our founder Benjamin and closely supported and developed him during his time at H&Z. Roman is also the mastermind behind H&Z's strategic investment with us.

After working in industry for Siemens and Nokia, Roman, who holds a degree in computer science and business administration, found his way to H&Z as a partner in 2009 and has since been intensively developing the Rail and Service division.

His incomparable way of always finding the right triad between professionalism, personal relationship and pragmatism helps us every day anew.

Coming soon

"We will see"

Rainer Hoffmann

„been there- but still hungry”

More than 25 years ago, Rainer founded H&Z Unternehmensberatung AG together with his partner and shaped it over almost three decades into what it is today. Today, the H&Z Group, with more than seven subsidiaries, including a joint venture with BMW, has more than 600 employees. What makes H&Z special, however, is its unique approach to consulting: people-centered with brain, heart and hand. In short, H&Z is many things we would like to become, and Rainer is here to help us along the way.

Rainer graduated in computer science and in the meantime joined H&Z's supervisory board as chairman. He is also a member of the advisory board of several startups, including German LiDAR pioneer Blickfeld.

We look forward to working with Rainer on many more projects and inspiring customers.

Sarah Reitz

"Founding is like a roller coaster ride - riding together is twice the fun".

Sarah is a longtime friend and fellow student of our founder Benjamin. As a clinical psychologist, she is fascinated by what drives people - whether in business, relationships or as individuals.

After several years as a management consultant at BCG, it was time for Sarah to combine her psychological knowledge with her passion for innovation. As co-founder of the Berlin-based startup whylab, Sarah is building a social health platform that brings people together in virtual groups. Emotional fitness and mental well-being can be trained like muscles - this is what Sarah advocates for every day to make our society more resilient and healthy.

Her experience as a founder and psychologist have already saved us from one or the other hick-up and we are looking forward to our time together.
