About Ingmar Baus
I\'m a builder. For 20 years, I\'ve specialized in creating innovation infrastructure from scratch - programs, incubators, international operations - in high-ambiguity environments where there\'s no playbook.What I\'ve built- Innovation Consulting offering at BASF Management Consulting- BASF\'s Chemovator - designed and implemented as a standalone legal entity, presented results to the BASF Board of Directors - Clariant\'s Innovation Garage - shaped the business incubator concept and service offering from zero - trinamiX Sensing LLC - currently building the company\'s first international operations in Austin, TexasHow I operate:I thrive in the 0-to-1 phase. I figure things out independently, move where the company needs me, and execute across strategic and operational levels. Whether it\'s presenting to investors, debugging processes, or building teams - I\'ve done it across four countries on three continents.I\'m autodidactic and comfortable without a blueprint. When you\'re setting up operations in Argentina or Austin, you learn what you need to know and execute. What drives me: Beyond building businesses, I\'m fascinated by behavior change and habit formation - particularly in health and fitness. After decades of personal experimentation, I\'ve learned that fundamentals beat complexity every time. Consistent training, sustainable nutrition, proper recovery - that\'s the 95% that matters. This insight applies to everything I build: sustainable systems beat heroic efforts.Languages: German (native), English, Spanish, Portuguese Based: Austin, Texas (through June 2026)
