CREATION

HELLO.
NICE TO
MEET YOU.

My name is Micha Kruppa. I'm a passionate IT and AI nerd. I've been coding since I was 9 years old and never stopped.

After nearly 2 decades of research (master in computer sciences, PhD in Artificial Intelligence), with a lot of experience as an IT consultant, serial entrepreneur, Chief Creative Officer (CCO) of an IT and communication agency and over 5 years working as a self employed AI consultant and developer, my claim is this:

If I can’t solve your IT problem you will have a hard time finding anyone who can.

It is my passion to make IT happen. All the way from the birth of tech-heavy creative ideas to the actual coding I will ensure this:

IT will work and it will be awesome!

WHAT OTHERS SAY ABOUT MY WORK

The Bremen efficiency model

I met Micha as a graduate student at Professor Wahlster’s chair. I later supervised his doctoral thesis and worked on several research projects with him. What always fascinated me was the efficiency with which Micha went about it. He has a very good sense of how much energy needs to be invested to achieve an excellent result and still not waste time. I named this method the “Bremer Model” after the city of his birth.

Innovative ideas – cool pitches

When Micha started at DB Systel, we were very sure that it would be exciting. We equipped it with many degrees of freedom, which Micha immediately used very productively. In a very short time, he networked widely within the company and used the existing innovation management tools (Skydeck Accelerator, Beyond1435) to successfully pitch and implement innovative ideas. With his enthusiasm and hands-on mentality, he inspired many of his colleagues and brought a breath of fresh air and a culture of innovation into the company.

Creative Innovation

I was fortunate to work closely with Micha for several years. His ability to combine technical expertise with creative thinking was always impressive. Especially in our software development projects, he has proven that he can master even the most complex challenges. His move into the creative field was a benefit for us because he continued to apply his technical knowledge and developed innovative solutions that were also technically feasible. I always really enjoyed working with Micha. (translated from german with google translate)

Nothing is impossible

During our collaboration, Micha always impressed me with (technologically) creative solutions that he was only able to find because he has an extremely broad spectrum of experience. He always combines these experiences from a wide variety of areas to solve problems where others would say: “It doesn’t work!”. (translated from german with google translate)

To the point, interesting and understandable

Micha was sent by the VDMA to bring us closer to the topic of “Industry 4.0”. With his rousing presentation on the topic, he quickly picked us up and inspired us. He has a talent for getting to the heart of the important things and packaging them in an interesting and understandable way. A few weeks later, Micha suggested that I organize a StartUp Hackathon in our house. I was immediately hooked and convinced that it would be a complete success. I should be right.

From techie to chief creative officer

Micha started at Cocomore as Head of IT Consulting and impressed us with his technical know-how, the practical application of it and his conceptual problem-solving skills. Micha was not only technically convincing in his solution concepts, but also showed wealth of ideas and creative strength. We therefore entrusted him with the position of Chief Creative Officer (CCO). This combination of creative thinking and technological expertise is crucial to success in a digital agency.

Drive despite headwinds

In an association, it is not always easy to implement new ideas and visions promptly and efficiently. Together with Micha, we still managed to open the association up to startups and make it attractive. That was great fun and got a lot going. Apart from that, I have very fond memories of our technical and philosophical conversations. (translated from german with google translate)

Rainer Glatz (Managing Director)
former VDMA

Innovation through combination

I worked with Micha on a large cross-disciplinary collaborative project. Micha’s task was to develop a technology that can be used to locate a smartphone in all application contexts (e.g. in the house, outside, in the car, in public transport or public buildings). To solve the problem, Micha “married” two worlds that at first glance don’t fit together: location technology and search engine methods. The result was convincing and proved once again: innovation often comes from combinations. (translated from german with google translate)

former Forschungsgruppe Geriatrie der Charité

Mediator between worlds

I met Micha as part of a start-up hackathon at a medium-sized company. At the time, Micha came from the association (VDMA), but also spoke the language of startups. As the organizer and moderator of the VDMA’s first StartUp Hackathon, Micha managed to bring together the world of medium-sized companies with the world of the young start-up scene. The hackathon was a great success for everyone involved. (translated from german with google translate)
