Ingo is a Founding Partner of South Pole Group, a global market leader in the use of results-based/performance-based incentives systems to drive the transformation to the low carbon society world-wide, and as a means to facilitate cooperative actions among stakeholders and within supply chains. He is driving South Pole's work on energy transformation in South East Asia, the acceleration of electric mobility solutions in the region, and strengthening the next generation of integrated carbon markets.

He is also a Co Founder of Whapow (whapow.de), a food tech start-up which is tackling the urgent need to massively improve the sustainability of our food system via the development of food & beverage applications around photosynthetic microorganisms - the original fuel of organic life on Earth - that are providing most essential nutrients with unmatched resource efficiency for human consumption, as new staple ingredient, and in partnership with the world’s chefs and food services companies.

Ingo is an optimist who believes that the world urgently needs and is full of transformative opportunities and business models to restore and create social and environmental capital at scale, affecting how we consume, feed ourselves, use energy, communicate and transact with each other positively.

While this transformation is enabled by technology innovation, he hopes that it is guided by the mindful acceptance of new insights, driven by global collaboration, shared values, and will lead to the decentralization of wealth creation.

He has two wonderful children who are beginning to spread their wings.
