Serving as deputy trade commissioner and commercial attaché, Stephan spent the last nine years representing Austria’s economic and private business interests at the highest levels in Cairo, Bangkok, and New York City. He thrives in challenging, dynamic environments and used his strong analytical abilities, keen perception, business acumen, and diplomatic competences to help Austrian companies export, expand, and invest around the globe, from Cambodia to South Sudan and from Addis Abeba to Yangon. Stephan’s professional focus ranges from advising Austrian companies, official economic reporting, presentations and articles, to organizing official delegations (e.g., trade missions to Myanmar and Vietnam, the first fact-finding mission to Cambodia), to co-organizing the largest European tech event in New York City in 2019 (Moving Forward).
