Hey, I am Laurenz Sommerlad and extremely passionate about AI, Robotics, and Entrepreneurship π
I simply love building things and connecting with people. In fact, I built my first software projects at 12, had a student-led startup at 15, and joined a technical high school majoring in CS & Math the following year after my US exchange semester.
Quick Facts:
- Academic track record (Top 2% at TUM and Abitur 1.0)
- 2+ years of work experience as a Software Engineer (working student)
- Leading a cross-functional team of 20+ students in the Venture Department, organizing a 14-week equity-free AI startup incubator the AI E-Lab including workshops, speaker series, networking events, mentors and pitch competitions at TUM.ai e.V.
- Building an Autonomous Mars Rover for the European Rover Challenge in 2024 with WARR Space Robotics
I love sports (weight training, martial arts/ wing chun, Marathons, Technical Diving/ Cave Diving, Wakeboarding, Snowboarding, and soon Ironmans) and learning languages (French, Spanish, Japanese & Arabic).
Determined to make the world a better place by solving the most challenging problems with technology.
Feel free to reach out! I am always down for a coffee if you are in Munich β
