Anyone who wants to start a sustainable company in Europe faces bureaucratic hurdles and sometimes an underdeveloped market. Christian Müller’s work begins where start-ups feel thwarted. The chemical engineer with a doctorate has represented EIT InnoEnergy as Managing Director in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland since 2013. EIT InnoEnergy is one of Europe’s largest investors in the cleantech sector, co-financed by the EU Commission. With his work, Müller wants to „find ways to accelerate changes in the energy system,“ he says.
