A day in Frankfurt
From Berlin to Frankfurt today. Arrived around 9AM. It’s my second visit to the Frankfurt office. There are almost 100 people here in Frankfurt, organized into two self-contained Business Units run by the Kai’s (Kai Platschke runs Frankfurt East and Kai Greib runs Frankfurt North). Frankfurt is also the City that Andreas and Olaf call home – so I guess one could say it is the German headquarters.
I’m here in Frankfurt today to do a series of press interviews and catch up with the team…
Kai Paltschke and a few of his people are off to see Microsoft in Munich and pitch them on a strategy for one of their online services… wish them luck
Once the interviews were over, I had a chance to spend some time with Sven Weisbrich, our new head of Media in Germany (although I encouraged him to broader than media — distribution or connections or whatever we will call it). It is great to see the enthusiasm here in Europe to invent the digital future.
And got to catch up with Elke – CD extraordinaire and Tom, one of the several Brits in Germany







Too many Brits here.
