Prof. Dr. Pommerening has approximately 50 years of experience working as a financial and strategic consultant across different industries and territories. He was Senior Director of McKinsey & Company, where he worked
He has held several board seats and has invested in and advised numerous startups. One of these startups was the creation of the UEFA Champions League in the early 90s, which led to the establishment of TEAM AG, the sport marketing agency which to this day exclusively looks after UEFA’s club competitions.
Around the same time, he also became Honorary Professor at Handelshochschule Leipzig (currently known as HHL Leipzig Graduate School of Management), one of the world’s oldest business schools.
He will use his vast experience, using the UEFA Champions League as a case study, to impart practical insights to our Candidates and hopefully inspire them to create the next big thing in football.
