Andreas G. Stütz

Andreas G. Stütz has been an IT and media entrepreneur, pilot and inventor with several patents for over 20 years.

During his studies at the University of Passau, he developed the first concept of a group-wide information marketplace for the CEO of Daimler. After working for Mercedes-Benz Japan in Tokyo and Dresdner Bank Securities in New York City, he successfully founded several IT companies. Andreas and his companies have won prestigious awards, such as the McKinsey Startup Award, which was presented by Angela Merkel.

In a TV co-production with ARD, he and his wife Melanie flew across five continents in a “flying car” in 18 months and used the publicity to raise money for the education of disadvantaged children. In recent years, his research on what influences the value of companies led to IDEASCANNER.

Media Coverage

IDEASCANNER is recommended in the book ‘Future Business Kompass’

In his new book Stephan Grabmeier recommends IDEASCANNER for the smart evaluation of business models to start the Sustainable Business Transformation:
'In my work, I evaluate many ideas from start-ups or new business models, for example in setting up innovation labs, in intrapreneur programs, in direct investments in young companies or when we evaluate students with our Next Entrepreneurs programs. [...]
Ideas and business models must be evaluated in a structured way. For me and my clients, the Ideascanner is an objective quick test for evaluation.'
