Laura is a generalist through and through. After earning four academic degrees in political science, economics, and international law in five years (two B.A., M.Sc., and LL.M. degrees, completed in Germany, China, and Denmark, respectively), she has devoted herself entirely to public sector consulting.
She now focuses on improving public procurement to make the public sector accessible to startups. Specific procurement procedures as well as continuous exchanges on both sides play a crucial role.
In her position as Head of Governmental Relations, she is well connected and has recurring conversations to build and maintain an innovation ecosystem in government - nationally and internationally.
