  1. Are you Team Coffee or Team Tea?

Team Coffee

  1. Tell us about yourself in one sentence.

I’m Klemens, 23 years old and I’m in my 6th semester of business studies here in Regensburg – since spring 2021, I’ve been working as a student trainee at Konzept AG in the follow-up team and can help with many different tasks related to the entire sales process!

  1. What interests you about M&A?

What I appreciate most is the diversity of our clients – I really enjoy getting to grips with the business models of companies within days, hours or sometimes moments and recognising and evaluating their USPs!

  1. What do you like about working at konzept?

From my first day at work, I was integrated directly into the team and was always able to contribute my own opinions and ideas! You can tell that my colleagues are enthusiastic and committed! This is also noticeable in the fact that the entire succession team always wants to improve and works together on the further development of processes and procedures. As a working student, I can also learn a lot, play an active role and help shape things creatively – that’s challenging and a lot of fun!

  1. What is your favourite thing to do in your free time?

In my free time, I volunteer at the student consultancy intouchCONSULT and am currently responsible for all IT topics as head of the IT department. I like to spend the rest of my time watching football at home, cycling outside or playing volleyball in the gym!

  1. What career aspirations did you have as a child?

Professional footballer, of course – but I realised very quickly that it wasn’t going to be a career!

  1. If you could meet a famous person – living or dead: Who would it be?

The British comedian Ricky Gervais.

Thank you, Klemens, for the lovely interview !
