Dr. Christian Bielefeld
Head of Advisory Board
expertise for perspective
TRUSTEQ is growing. The energy of the entire team and productive collaboration with our clients have enabled us to grow from a start-up to an established consulting firm in recent years. However, more growth also means more questions about the future that need to be answered. To this end, we established a new committee at the beginning of 2026.
As a strategic control and advisory body, this advisory board will provide valuable external input and support TRUSTEQ's decision-making at the highest level. The mix of TRUSTEQ managers and external experts will help ensure the company's long-term success.
The advisory board will provide independent opinions on important strategic issues. It serves as a supervisory and advisory body for the management. The external perspective and many years of experience of the members provide us with valuable insights and new perspectives.
As a supervisory body, the advisory board is presented with the latest developments. The most important decisions are submitted, discussed, and jointly agreed upon. This structured decision-making process ensures that strategic decisions are made on a sound basis and communicated transparently to all stakeholders.
With its expertise in marketing, consulting, and finance, the Advisory Board helps us develop a balanced strategy for the future and supports its operational implementation. The complementary expertise of the Advisory Board members enables us to holistically assess opportunities and risks and continuously refine our strategic direction.
In addition to organic growth, TRUSTEQ GmbH (and, in the future, TRUSTEQ Ventures GmbH) is driving accelerated growth. The advisory board helps to identify, evaluate, and acquire targets. With their comprehensive market knowledge and extensive network, the advisory board members actively support us in identifying the right acquisition opportunities and successfully implementing them.
He leads the team of 8 TRUSTEES + external experts.
Dr. Christian Bielelfeld heads the advisory board. With over 25 years of experience in senior positions (member of the executive board at the VHV Group and the SIGNAL IDUNA Group, partner at McKinsey), he brings excellent expertise to this role.
Christian brings TRUSTEQ's CxOs, service pillar leads, and account leads together in a permanent advisory board. The board meets three times a year, in February, June, and October, to discuss TRUSTEQ's key issues and make joint decisions.
External experts are invited to attend meetings on content-related or strategic topics to provide innovative input from outside the company.

"I am delighted that we now have an advisory board that can guide and support TRUSTEQ on its continued upward trajectory. I couldn't have imagined anyone better suited to this role than Christian."

"As Chairman of the Advisory Board, my focus is on challenging and supporting management in strategic decisions in a spirit of partnership. With my experience as a CxO, I look forward to assisting TRUSTEQ in the strategic expansion of its core competencies and brand."
