Eisbach Partners: Robert Maier as new Associate Partner

Digitization and new technologies are shaking up markets, innovation cycles are becoming shorter, companies are competing worldwide. This underpins the necessity to not only identify new business models quickly and effectively but also the urge to have a fast and goal-oriented implementation. Therein, the customer is key – Only if the customer’s desires are taken into account, a launch becomes a success. If a company does not react accordingly, it runs the risk of being left behind by its competition. 

To strengthen its position as one of the leading venture builders in the DACH region, Eisbach Partners has brought Robert Maier on board as a new Associate Partner.

Prior to joining Eisbach Partners, Robert spent five years supporting various clients across industries at the management consultancy Roland Berger. With a focus on strategy, business model innovation as well as restructuring and due diligence, he brings the optimal mix of strategic know-how and a future-oriented mindset. Before joining Roland Berger, he worked on his own Fintech and was also part of the Sixt group. During his time at Sixt, he was rolling out strategic projects within the corporate development department with a special focus on the US as the key growth market at the time. The corporate development department represents the in-house consultancy of one of the world’s leading mobility service providers. 

«We are very pleased that we have been able to win Robert as a proven expert for our team. Next to his valuable skills and experience he clearly has entrepreneurship in his blood – an irreplaceable prerequisite for successful work in our projects» says Markus Barnikel, Managing Partner at Eisbach.
