24 years at Bayer. Zero years standing still😊 Maik lives inside the Bayer Pharma Commercial Disruption team, hunting down tomorrow's capabilities before anyone else even knows to look for them. He's the engine behind Bayer's AI Transformation — Vibe Coding Hackathons, generative AI services like Text-to-Avatar with Synthesia.io, and a whole new way of working he calls Agentic Leadership, where humans and AI teams co-create in real time. Next up on his radar: physical AI and quantum computing — because why wait for the future when you can build it? He also lectures at universities on Lab to Market, runs Bayer's Mentor Program for rising talent, and is one of the most connected voices in the startup and tech meetup scene — organizer, speaker, connector, repeat offender. And then there's TinkRebels.com — his platform giving kids from age 10 their first real hands-on encounter with AI, turning the next generation into builders, not just users. Author. Songwriter with tracks on Spotify. Full-time believer that every day counts — because our time is limited, but the ideas we build today can outlast us all.
