Dr. Jochen Kalka
He began his career in the media sector, where he spent more than two decades as editor-in-chief at Süddeutscher Verlag, where he was responsible for the specialist media W&V - Werben & Verkaufen, Lead Digital, Kontakter, Media & Marketing and Marketingjournal. With his commentaries, analyses and trenchant assessments, he has left his mark on the German-speaking marketing and media landscape. At the same time, he has published several books, including "Startup-Lüge", in which, as a self-confessed startup enthusiast, he sheds light on the darker side of the scene. In his regular column in the magazine Marke 41, he also doesn't mince his words and shows that for him, plain speaking is a question of attitude.
