About
Hello my name is Benjamin and I have studied Environmental Engineering (BSc) at TUM, followed by an MSc in Sustainable Urban Mobility Transitions at UPC (Barcelona) and Aalto University (Helsinki). With nine years in nightlife, events and gastronomy — from hosting venues to founding an NPO, organising festivals and concerts — I have worked at the intersection of youth culture and city-making, driven by one mission: shaping the city we live in. For the past five years, we focused on urban planning and tactical urbanism, co-founding the interdisciplinary placemaking studio WOW! Urbane Utopien. Our work spans Europe, delivering end-to-end services combining consultation, participation, modular design, construction, and public-space activation, in close collaboration with EIT Urban Mobility.
