Robert Glaser

Head of Data and AI, Principal Consultant

As Head of Data & AI at INNOQ, Robert helps boards and development teams run the full AI marathon—from use-case discovery and portfolio scoring to pilots and production—without getting stuck in proof-of-concept-hell. He designs operating models where agent tooling, eval loops, and compute realities reinforce each other so ambitious ideas actually ship. He hosts the podcast “AI und jetzt”, takes his techno-philosophy blog and newsletter on stage in conference talks, and keeps prodding leaders to think of AI as a foundational technology instead of a mere tool. In his spare time he chases single-origin beans and new restaurants, insisting palate calibration is just another form of model evaluation.
