Quest Germany is a structured working program for international B2B companies.
Together, we turn strategy into action — building outreach, contacts, and real market conversations, supported by experienced sparring and guidance.
Takes 3 minutes. No sales pitch.
Quest Germany is not a theory-based course.
It is a guided working program where companies actively prepare, enter, and engage with the German market — step by step, with expert sparring and clear structure.
Over the course of the program, participants work on their real market entry — not examples or simulations.
QUalify the market
Understand the German business landscape and your realistic position within it.
Participants define their target segments, refine their positioning, and identify the right types of German partners — avoiding dead-end outreach and costly misalignment.
Enter the market
Turn preparation into action.
Participants build their outreach approach, refine messaging for German decision-makers, and start real conversations — supported by live guidance, feedback, and sparring.
STay & Grow on the market
Focus on long-term success, not one-off contacts.
Participants strengthen relationships, prepare for trade shows or in-market meetings, and build the foundations for sustainable growth and trust in Germany.
By the end of the program, participants have taken concrete steps into the German market — with structure, clarity, and real experience.
Your guide for structured market entry into Germany
With over 15 years of experience in international business development, I support international B2B companies entering the German market with structure, realism, and long-term perspective.
My work focuses on helping companies avoid costly missteps, understand how decisions are made in Germany, and build credible relationships — before and during market entry.
In QUEST GERMANY, I work closely with participants as a sparring partner – providing direct feedback, local perspective, and practical guidance as they take real steps into the German market.

Interactive sessions with individual inputs will leave with an own personal international business masterplan.
At the end of a 2 Month program, you will:
Quest Germany is designed for international B2B companies that are serious about entering the German market in a structured and deliberate way.
The program is for teams who want to move from preparation to real market action — building outreach, contacts, and first conversations in Germany, supported by experienced sparring along the way.
Quest Germany is not a shortcut. It is a working program for companies that are ready to commit time, focus, and decision-making capacity to their German market entry.
*Quest Germany is intentionally limited in size to allow for personal guidance, open discussion, and practical sparring throughout the program.
The next Quest Germany cohort is planned to start in March 2026.
Quest Germany combines an intensive working phase with continued guidance and sparring over a total period of six months. Exact dates and session details are shared after the readiness check and strategy call, to ensure alignment with each company’s situation.
Quest Germany is delivered as a live, guided working program.
Participants take part in structured expert sessions, interactive Q&A and sparring sessions, and ongoing guidance while actively working on their German market entry.
To support implementation between sessions, participants receive:
access to session recordings
a dedicated online program platform
practical worksheets and templates to apply directly to their business
collaboration and reflection tools used during the program
The program combines group work with individual reflection and feedback, ensuring both structure and flexibility while keeping the focus on real-world execution.
Live participation is strongly encouraged, as Quest Germany is built around interaction and discussion.
If you miss a session, recordings and key materials are provided so you can stay aligned. However, the value of the program comes from active engagement rather than passive consumption.
Yes. Quest Germany is designed for companies before or at the early stages of entering the German market.
The program helps you build the right foundations, avoid common missteps, and approach the market with clarity and structure — even if Germany is new to your team.
Quest Germany is often especially valuable for companies that already have some exposure to the German market and want to structure, professionalize, or rethink their next steps.
If you only need support on a very specific topic, this will be discussed after the readiness check to determine whether Quest Germany or a different format is more appropriate.
Quest Germany requires active participation and follow-through between sessions.
The program is designed for companies that can dedicate regular time to preparation, outreach, and reflection.
Quest Germany is not an open self-signup program.
The first step is to complete the readiness check. Based on your results, you may be invited to a strategy call to discuss whether Quest Germany is the right fit for your company at this stage.
This ensures a focused group and meaningful exchange during the program.
I have worked with companies in engineering, manufacturing, metal processing, medical technology, and IT outsourcing, helping them successfully expand into the German market.
Quest Germany brings together international B2B companies from different industries that share one common goal: entering or strengthening their presence in the German market.
Participants typically include founders, CEOs, and senior business development or international marketing leaders from sectors such as:
Engineering, manufacturing, and industrial services
Technology, IT services, and system integration
Medical, healthcare, and regulated industries
Automotive and industrial supply chains
Selected consumer and branded product businesses
To ensure open exchange and meaningful collaboration, each cohort is intentionally limited and composed of non-competing companies.
Throughout Quest Germany, participants develop a clear, actionable roadmap for their German market entry and growth.
The roadmap reflects your company’s positioning, target segments, outreach approach, and next strategic steps. It typically covers areas such as:
Market and competitive positioning in Germany
Sales and business development approach
Lead preparation and partner targeting
Timeline planning aligned with your market-entry goals
Trade show or in-market activity preparation, where relevant
The roadmap is developed collaboratively during the program, shaped through live guidance, sparring, and real market feedback — not as a static document, but as a working reference for execution.
There are no mandatory additional costs beyond the Quest Germany program fee.
Any optional activities (such as attending trade shows or travel-related expenses) are independent of the program and depend on your company’s individual market entry strategy.
Quest Germany supports you in moving from preparation to real market action.
You work on positioning, outreach, partner conversations, and long-term relationship-building — with continuous guidance and sparring. The program focuses on helping you approach the German market with credibility, structure, and realism rather than quick wins.
