About
Carsten Wittmann
I combine technical excellence, strategic thinking and deep regulatory understanding – translating complex requirements from data protection, compliance and the EU AI Act into clear, practical solutions. My standard: AI strategies that are efficient, future-proof, legally sound and ethically defensible.
From process work to AI compliance
For over three decades I have led projects in banking and telecommunications where both mattered: technical depth and regulatory certainty. Since 2013 I have advised companies on strategy, information security, risk management and data governance. Out of customer focus, process optimisation and service management, a specialisation has grown that is particularly in demand today – AI compliance at the intersection of technology and law.
As a TÜV-certified AI consultant and certified data protection officer, I help companies set up their AI systems in a legally sound and verifiable way. As a compliance expert at the Koerting Institute and a conference speaker, I pass that knowledge on regularly.
