In the interview with Jörg Kretzschmar, CEO of smart2success GmbH

In a world where uncertainty has become the new constant, valid information determines a company’s ability to act. Silicon Valley Europe speaks with Jörg Kretzschmar, founder and managing director of smart2success, about the power of connected data, intelligent information structures, and the art of creating clarity from complexity.
Kretzschmar knows from first-hand experience – including in emergency management – just how critical stable information flows and transparent responsibilities are when organizations come under pressure. With smart2success, he pursues a clear mission: to free companies from data silos, intelligently network knowledge, and accelerate decision-making processes.
The interview explores how integrated data structures create resilience, how hybrid organizations can combine transparency and efficiency, and why networking is not just a technological but also a cultural challenge. Kretzschmar also discusses the importance of realistic emergency simulations to strengthen crisis resilience not just on paper, but in practice.
In this exciting conversation about stability through knowledge, clarity, and intelligent systems, we look at how public authorities and companies can gain new strength with pragmatic technology. These three minutes are well worth your time.
