My direction / 2026 → 2030

Mission 2030.

Create more. Build more. Move faster from ideas to action. Through software, businesses and knowledge, I want to help strengthen Austria as a place to do business. That is the larger purpose behind my work.

What I want to build

This page describes my goals. The project directory and current work overview show what already exists and how far each project has progressed.

  1. Software and businesses with lasting usefulness.

    I want to use AI and software to make specific tasks easier to solve and build viable businesses around them. That takes technical quality, an understanding of the workflow and people willing to share responsibility. Through Stoicera and my own projects, I am working towards that ambition.

    My greatest ambition is to help shape Austria’s economic future: through products of my own, entrepreneurial initiative and collaboration with people who want to build something here.

  2. Knowledge that helps others move forward.

    I want to publish technical writing regularly, write books and make knowledge accessible through talks, teaching and conversation. AI, engineering and entrepreneurship are my starting points. Philosophical writing and music are also part of what I want to create and share publicly.

    Existing publications
  3. Partnerships that lead to something tangible.

    I want to collaborate with businesses, organisations, researchers and people from other disciplines. As a public figure and author, I want to be approachable on the subjects I work on: for a product initiative, a professional exchange, an interview or a joint publication.

Principles / Practice / Responsibility

Practical is also theoretically best.

To me, engineering is the purest form of creation. I want to understand, build and test. My standard is whether the work holds up in practice: whether it makes a task easier, clarifies a question or gives others a useful starting point.

That ambition means showing results in a way others can assess and being open about limitations. If something is still in development, a hypothesis or an aspiration, that should remain clear. When I work with others, their contribution should be visible.

Speed is a goal.

I want to move faster from an idea to a result that can be tested: build early, test in practice, learn and keep working. To do that, I want to keep developing my abilities and take on more responsibility. Speed matters to me when that momentum produces something useful.

The path to 2030

2026 / Foundations
Bring my work together: describe projects clearly, make writing and resources accessible and create straightforward ways to get in touch and collaborate.
2027 / Public presence
Publish more regularly, give talks and deepen exchanges with the media, businesses and the technology community. I want to discuss my work publicly and be judged by it.
2030 / Lasting value
My goal is a connected body of work: useful products, viable businesses, publications and lasting partnerships. Through it, I want to help advance economic development in Austria and build something that gains substance over time.

This is my direction, rather than a confirmed publication schedule. Specific project updates, available resources and upcoming public plans are on the “Current work” page.
