Marc is a Product Partner at YPOG. In this role, he combines legal expertise with product thinking, legal tech, and artificial intelligence.
He advises clients at the intersection of law, technology, and organization, working with cross-functional teams to develop AI-based systems, digital workflows, and legal products for complex legal matters. His focus is on rethinking legal advice not only to make it more efficient, but to make it structurally different: more scalable, easier to integrate, and more closely aligned with clients’ business processes.
As Product Partner, Marc translates legal requirements into digital products and technological possibilities into robust legal applications. In doing so, he creates new value for clients, reduces friction in complex projects, and enables advisory offerings that go beyond the conventional use of off-the-shelf tools.
Education and Career
Marc studied law in Bonn, Prague and London (LL.M.). He completed his legal traineeship in Berlin, including placements at the Federal Cartel Office and a consultancy specialising in commercial law firms. He is an alumnus of INSEAD Executive Education programmes on artificial intelligence and digital product management.
Before joining YPOG, Marc led product teams in the legal publishing industry (LTO.de) and served as Chief of Staff to the international AI Management Board at Osborne Clarke.
