Taking a company all the way to Wallstreet - NYSE (and back)

Sometimes, the biggest opportunities don’t knock.
They hit you full speed — and you either jump or watch them pass.

In this episode, we sit down with Rudolf Franz, who went from managing private equity in Germany to taking voxeljet AG straight onto the New York Stock Exchange. Yes — that Wall Street.

We talk no-filter reality, including:

• How private equity hardwired him to take risks, fail fast, and move anyway
  
  
• What it really feels like to take a German company public in the US — from the adrenaline of ringing the bell to the brutal administrative gravity of the SEC
  
  
• Why competing on global markets isn’t about having the “better product” anymore — and what actually decides who wins
  
  
• How to survive (and thrive) in aggressive international markets where hesitation is punished
  
  

This is not a fairy tale IPO story.

✨ “Opportunities don’t wait — courage and action turn them into impact.” – Rudolf Franz
