"Changing the way people think about Web3" 

Catchy and intriguing titles are all in a day’s work, especially when you’re not just investing as a fund, but also building the next co-working & community space of tomorrow and building Web3 infrastructure. 

For years, I've accumulated experience in marketing, community and product management, until in 2021, I fully plunged into the Web3 rabbit hole.

I founded nft studio Berlin, an agency catering to brands. We developed our own NFT & Metaverse projects, until eventually, we transitioned to the other side.

At w3, we have not only established ourselves as a authentic brand but also distinguished ourselves as one of the few funds in Germany that invest in Web3 startups and the community culture, which plays a significant role in the scene.

What we do:
- w3.fund Ventures: Investing in early stage Web3 start ups building on the application layer.
- w3.wave: Liquid Token Investemtns
- w3.hub: Building Berlin's Home of Web3. We offer co-working, offices and an event space
- w3.vision: Our community owned media house
- w3.labs: Contribution to the Web3 infrastructure with next gen staking and tooling

To summarize my learnings and keep my community informed, I share our weekly industry newsletter, the 🎣w3.catch-of-the-week, as well as a podcast that delves into digital culture.

I am happy to also share my learnings and insights regularly on stage.

👉🏽 For speaking inquiries: gm@w3.fund

If you’ve made it this far, the title has served its purpose. Web3 is more than just JPEGs & Crypto Trading. We are driven by the transformative potential of Web3. This wave of digital innovation is reshaping the internet, organizations, and society at large, and we are dedicated to ensuring that everyone benefits from this.

We tried a new marketing strategy for our community hub and here’s what happened:

Instead of saying “look how great our hub is,” we shifted to something much simpler:

“Look how incredible our members are.”

For a long time, community spaces online (and offline) have relied on the same script: Show the space, the events. Show the hype.

But I started to realize that a hub only becomes a community when the people inside it become visible.

🫂 We began sharing our member stories back into the community. We talked about their fears, breakthroughs, and moments of growth. 

Because when people see themselves in someone else’s journey, they feel connected.

Once we started doing that, something shifted. Our members started inviting friends and shared each other’s work. They didn’t just attend; they started participating.

And it didn't take us too long to understand:

People don’t show up to join a brand, they show up to feel like they belong somewhere. And when they feel seen and supported, they turn a space into a community on their own.

We’re still experimenting and learning. But we'll definitely see, that it works. Most of it is based on our marketing wizards work - gg Quinn Wilhelm

When Art Basel Opens the Door to Digital Art: A Decade of Belief

It was in 2014 when we launched Germany’s first digital art fair: UNPAINTED
In 2015, full of optimism, we approached Art Basel.
The answer was no.

Last week I received Art Basel’s announcement of “Zero 10” – their initiative to engage digital creators and bring them into dialogue with the established art world. And I find myself unexpectedly emotional.

Not because we were right – but because of the artists who never stopped creating despite the closed doors. The ones who coded in obscurity. Who wrote alorithms when the first computers were switched on. Who minted when no one understood NFTs. Who explored AI and generative art when galleries wouldn’t even return their emails.

As an art historian turned futurist, I’ve always been drawn to the moment when technology meets artistic expression. Artists have always been the first to experiment with new tools, to push boundaries, to critique emerging paradigms – from the camera obscura to the computer. That’s why I became a digital art expert before the term had meaning: because innovation in art has always fascinated me, even when it wasn’t yet accepted.

To the artists I’ve championed and adored over the years – your persistence has rewritten the rules. You are artists. You always were.

To the galleries and curators who exhibited digital work when it meant smaller crowds and skeptical collectors – your courage created pathways.

This moment with Art Basel's Zero 10 represents something important: the art world evolving to embrace what artists have been creating all along. It's a recognition that strengthens the entire ecosystem – and opens doors for the next generation of digital creators.

If you’re a collector, institution, or organization exploring digital art strategies – or simply wondering what Zero 10 means for the future of collecting – we ☝🏼would be happy to share what a decade in this space has taught us.

The future of art has always included technology.
We’re just finally saying it out loud.

When Reality Blurs, Human Judgment Becomes Our Most Valuable Asset

As an art historian, I am trained to think in centuries. To observe how ideas evolve, how forms shift, and how every generation negotiates the tension between innovation and identity.

Over the years, I have learned to recognize something that is increasingly rare:
originality, context, and authenticity.

Today, as the boundaries between the physical world and digitally generated realities blur, this perspective matters more than ever. Because the question is no longer what technology can create, but who shapes its meaning.

This is why my work in AI is deeply human-centered.

We cannot outsource judgment, cultural understanding, or ethical intention. 
AI may scale cognition, but it cannot replace the cultural memory, imagination, and responsibility that humans bring to the table.

In my new book "From Gutenberg to ChatGPT", I explore how we can build AI systems that are not only powerful, but responsible. Not only intelligent, but human-aligned.

If we lose sight of authenticity in an age of infinite generation, we risk losing the very compass that helps us navigate intelligence — human or artificial.

This moment demands a new kind of leadership. One that remembers where we come from, so we can shape where we are going.

What does authentic leadership in AI look like to you?

Before we design the future,

Von Gutenberg zu ChatGPT

1450: Ein Goldschmied aus Mainz verändert die Welt.
Gutenberg erfand nicht nur den Buchdruck. Er schuf ein System: Jeder Buchstabe identisch. Jede Seite präzise. Jeder Druck verlässlich.
Was er demokratisierte, war nicht nur Wissen – sondern Vertrauen in dessen Verlässlichkeit.

2025: Wir stehen vor einer ähnlichen Schwelle.
KI erzeugt Texte, Bilder, Entscheidungen – aber sie kann nicht beweisen, woher sie kommen. Ein Bild ohne Signatur. Ein Vertrag ohne Beglaubigung. Eine Diagnose ohne Quelle.

Hier liegt die nächste Transformation: Blockchain als Betriebssystem für vertrauenswürdige KI.

Nicht Bitcoin. Nicht Spekulation.
Sondern fälschungssichere Identität für KI-Agenten, Daten, Entscheidungen.

Das ist der Gutenberg-Moment des 21. Jahrhunderts:
Intelligenz revolutionieren – mit Vertrauen als Fundament.

Deutschland versteht dieses Prinzip:
Präzision als Versprechen.
Qualität als Methode.
Verlässlichkeit als Geschäftsmodell.

Von Gutenberg zu ChatGPT
Vom Buchdruck zur Blockchain.
Von künstlicher zu authentischer Intelligenz.

🎯 Am 21. November erscheint mein neues Buch "Von Gutenberg zu ChatGPT – Damit wir nicht die Kontrolle über die Zukunft verlieren".

Morgen: Warum 95% der KI-Projekte scheitern – und was Deutschland tun kann.

Von Gutenberg zu ChatGPT

"Jede große Technologie ist eine Prüfung des menschlichen Charakters.
Künstliche Intelligenz wird die größte Prüfung unserer Zeit."

Sie kann Krankheiten heilen, Wissen demokratisieren, ganze Industrien erneuern. Aber sie kann auch Macht konzentrieren, Ungleichheit vertiefen, Kontrolle zementieren. Die Frage ist nicht, ob KI bleibt – sondern: Wer gestaltet sie, und nach welchen Prinzipien?

Als Kunsthistorikerin bin ich es gewohnt, in Jahrhunderten zu denken. Und je tiefer ich in die KI-Debatte eintauchte, desto klarer wurde mir:

Deutschland steht nicht am Rande dieser Revolution – es trägt den Code für ihre menschlichste Form bereits in sich.

Als Gutenberg 1450 den Buchdruck erfand, demokratisierte er Wissen durch Präzision, Norm und Verlässlichkeit. Dieses Betriebssystem prägt Deutschland bis heute.

Ich nenne es den Gutenberg-Code.

🎯 Am 21. November erscheint mein neues Buch "Von Gutenberg zu ChatGPT – Damit wir nicht die Kontrolle über die Zukunft verlieren".

Es zeigt, wie aus deutschem Erbe digitale Souveränität wird. Wie aus Ingenieurskunst, Mittelstand und Humboldt'scher Bildung eine KI entstehen kann, die nicht nur leistungsfähig ist, sondern vertrauenswürdig.

Experten schätzen: Noch drei bis sieben Jahre bis zur Superintelligenz.
Die Architektur wird heute entschieden.

Über die nächsten Tage teile ich zentrale Erkenntnisse. 

Die Zukunft wartet nicht.
Sie wird geschrieben.
Von uns allen. Jetzt.

AI as Art: A Debate We’ve Had Before

After a recent talk, a traditional museum director told me: “We've decided to exclude AI art in our jury sessions.”

That sentence felt strangely familiar.
It echoes the early 20th-century debates when photography was dismissed as "not real art." It took decades until museums embraced it.
 
AI art follows exactly this lineage.

What many forget: AI art is not autonomous. 
It cannot create without humans.
 
Human artists work with the biological neural networks of the brain, shaped by patterns, memory, and intention. AI works with artificial neural networks shaped by data humans provide. The two systems mirror each other – one organic, one engineered.

AI may not (yet) have emotions, but it extends the artist's intention. A prompt is not just a technical instruction; it is a creative decision, a conceptual framework, a distilled vision.

What emerges is not "machine art," but human-machine collaboration.

For me, AI art is unmistakably art – but of course its artistic quality depends entirely on the human who shapes the input.
AI expands what creation can be.

New tools have always provoked resistance – until they reshaped culture. Photography did. Digital art did. AI art will.

Please share your perspective with the LinkedIn community:
How long will it take this time for us to recognise a new medium as art – and what do we risk if we don’t?

Der blinde Fleck: Warum 95% aller KI-Projekte scheitern – und was Deutschland anders macht

Alle reden über KI-Erfolg. Aber die Realität sieht anders aus:

➡️ Eine aktuelle MIT-Studie zeigt: 95% aller KI-Projekte scheitern.
Nicht wegen Technologie. Sondern wegen fehlender Datenqualität, Silostrukturen, Angstkulturen, mangelnder Verantwortung und fehlender strategischer Einbettung ins Geschäftsmodell.

Das ist der blinde Fleck.
Wir optimieren Modelle, aber nicht Organisationen. Wir reden über Innovation, aber vergessen die Grundlage: Vertrauen, Struktur, Herkunft.

Und genau hier liegt eine deutsche Stärke, die im internationalen KI-Wettlauf oft übersehen wird:

🇩🇪 Deutschland scheitert anders – und genau das ist unser Vorteil.
Wir bauen Ökosysteme, nicht Hypes.
Wir denken in Verantwortung, nicht in Geschwindigkeit.
Wir schaffen Standards, nicht nur Produkte.
Wir verbinden Ingenieurskunst mit kultureller Identität.

Daten + Lösung im Überblick:

Die Daten: Warum Projekte scheitern
▶︎ 70% fehlen valide, saubere Daten.
▶︎ 62% haben keine klare Ownership oder Verantwortungsarchitektur.
▶︎ 50% floppen, weil KI nicht ins Geschäftsmodell verankert ist.
▶︎ 95% scheitern, weil Organisationen nicht transformiert wurden – nur Technologie.

Die Lösung: Das deutsche Modell
▶︎ Aus meiner Forschung für „Von Gutenberg zu ChatGPT“ wird klar:
▶︎ Wir brauchen ein speziell deutsches KI-Modell – kein Silicon-Valley-Klon.
▶︎ Ein Modell, das auf drei Säulen basiert:

🧩 1. Herkunft & Kontext
Verstehen, was uns stark gemacht hat:
Druckkunst, Humboldt’scher Wissensbegriff, Mittelstandspräzision, Datenschutz als Kulturleistung.

🧩 2. Struktur & Qualität
 Daten-Governance statt Daten-Chaos.
 Standards statt Schnellschüsse.
 Responsible AI statt unkontrollierter Skalierung.

🧩 3. Ökosystem & Vertrauen
 Mittelstand + Wissenschaft + Technologiepartner.
 Ko-Kreation statt Konkurrenz.
 Regulierte Innovation, die weltweit Vertrauen schafft.

✨ Ergebnis:
Wenn wir KI nicht nur bauen, sondern einbetten – in Kultur, Organisation, Verantwortung – entsteht ein deutsches KI-Modell, das global gebraucht wird: vertrauenswürdig, resilient, humanistisch.

Das ist kein Nachteil.
Das ist unser Kapital.

🎯 Save the Date: Am 21. November erscheint mein neues Buch "Von Gutenberg zu ChatGPT – Damit wir nicht die Kontrolle über die Zukunft verlieren".
