Benedikt is mainly responsible for all technical decisions of our products. Due to his studies (technical chemistry, process engineering and last but not least PhD studies in the field of chemometrics) and his years of experience in programming, he is not only able to put himself in the position of the user and identify problems in the market, but also to find solutions quickly. Benedikt develops product solutions and aligns them with our strategy and vision. At the same time, he takes an active role as a delegate for ISO where he is working to develop a standard for microplastic analysis. Benedikt is the calm soul of our team and, when things are going well, brings a musical accompaniment to significant meetings.
