ANDREAS HIELSCHER
Logic. Language.
Design. Strategy.
The Foundation: Code & Structure
My professional roots lie in the logic of data. Before entering the creative field, I worked as a database programmer for a major German insurance company. This experience gave me a deep understanding of complex systems, algorithmic thinking, and the importance of structural precision. These are skills that I still use in my work today.
The Craft: Design & Storytelling
Driven by the desire to shape not just backend systems, but also tangible realities, I studied product design at the HfG Offenbach. However, form requires a narrative. To master the language of persuasion, I earned a degree from the Texterschmiede Hamburg (School of Ideas). This unique combination gave me the ability to build products and the stories that sell them.
The Strategy: Interbrand & Big Mandates
My career in high-level consulting began at Interbrand in Munich and Zurich. There, I managed strategic mandates for global corporations such as BMW Group, MINI, Vattenfall, and Lufthansa. Working with these corporations taught me how to navigate massive organizational structures and implement innovation on a large scale.
The Evolution: Venture Design
Eventually, I chose entrepreneurship to combine these disciplines without compromise. Today, as a venture designer, I combine the logic of programmers, the creativity of designers, the narrative skills of copywriters, and the strategic thinking of consultants. At LEOconomy, I leverage my diverse background to lead teams and develop infrastructures for the New Space Economy. I understand not just the technology, but also the business model and the story needed to make it fly.
