Linnea Brand

Undergraduate Student

Linnea is a visiting undergraduate researcher at the Cyber-Human Lab, where she analyzes market potential for Computer Vision Technologies and develops a market entry strategy. This research serves as her thesis, completing her Bachelor’s degree in Management and Technology at the Technical University of Munich.

Before joining the Cyber-Human Lab, Linnea gained substantial experience identifying pre-product-market fits for patented DeepTech innovations. She contributed to spin-off projects from the Nano-institute and the Tinnefeld Lab (Physical Chemistry) at the University of Munich. In these two startups, she secured €1.5 million in startup funding from the German government, developed the market entry strategies, and established initial customer relationships.

She is highly active in the entrepreneurship scene, by serving as an Analyst at Innovis VC, Europe’s largest VC initiative or by visiting prominent startup events like Bits&Pretzels and START Summit in St. Gallen. Additionally, she joined the UnternehmerTUM accelerator program XPLORE, working on her own startup, BioAntenna. Her market expertise spans BioTech, HealthTech, and ClimateTech, stemming from her specialization in Medical Science and a semester at Singapore Management University, a hub for ClimateTech and entrepreneurship.

Linnea has further honed her startup experience at companies such as Fintecture in Paris and RobCo, a leading robotics startup. In consulting, she has worked with Oliver Wyman and Academy Consult, Germany’s largest student consultancy.
