25 years experience

As an entrepreneur

The holistic support of my clients is particularly important to me. As an IT lawyer and management consultant, I see myself as a partner who accompanies you through all phases of your company’s development – from the first pitch to successful completion. It is important to me to build a long-term, trusting relationship in which we grow together and learn from each other.

Education and professional career

I discovered my passion for international legal issues during my studies at the Free University of Berlin, which I completed from 1997 to 2004. A high school stay in the USA inspired me to think outside the box. Parallel to my studies, I ventured into entrepreneurship and built up a company with over 30 employees. After graduating, I was able to professionalize it further and eventually sell it to investors. Today it is part of Gamigo AG – an experience that has shaped me and sharpened my view of the challenges faced by entrepreneurs.

During my legal clerkship at the Court of Appeal in Berlin, I was lucky enough to work for Malte Behrmann, the co-founder of the GAME Bundesverband. I supported the founding of the Ad2games advertising network – an exciting time in which I immersed myself in the world of game marketing. After my legal clerkship, I founded my first own law firm, Behrmann & Härtel, with Malte Behrmann. At the same time, I managed the German representation of the largest advertising network for computer games, CPMStar, for the US company GSN – an intensive phase in which I learned a lot about the global games industry.

In 2012, I ventured into the world of computer game licenses and founded OnLegends GmbH with Julian Migura and Malte Behrmann. Our focus: brokering licenses from Asia to Europe and South America. Through my work for OnLegends and H&H Games Consulting GmbH, I was able to gain valuable experience in the Asian markets and build up a strong network. This was followed in 2017 by the founding of Esports Consulting GmbH, with which I support companies entering the esports market.

Special competencies and experience

What sets me apart? My extensive network in the international computer games industry, coupled with over 20 years of experience in managing companies and businesses in this exciting industry. I maintain close contacts with the most important publishers and developers of online games and have in-depth knowledge of legal advice for computer games and new media companies. My personal affinity for IT issues is the fuel that drives me to find the best possible solutions for my clients.

With my expertise, passion and commitment, I am at your side to help you achieve your goals in the dynamic world of IT and online entertainment. Let’s work together and take your business to the next level!
