Katharina Boehringer

Chief Marketing Officer

She’s a communications expert specialised in (digital) marketing and content strategy, content creation, campaigning, public relations (PR), consulting, journalism and copywriting. She’s a creative mind, strategic thinker and dedicated copywriter who has gathered a unique blend of experience spanning a 15 year career. She built and led the content creation and PR department of premium sportswear brand KJUS where she shaped the brand image, tonality and storytelling approach. She spearheaded international campaigns from ideation to implementation for different channels (on-, offline, POS) and evaluation. Prior to that, she was a PR consultant in the healthcare sector and has worked as a journalist since 2002 for publications such as Frankfurter Rundschau and sueddeutsche.de. Before joining the Singularity Group she was the Head of Marketing of fintech startup Advanon. She graduated from KIT (Karlsruhe Institute of Technology).

Katharina is passionate about writing. Crafting sentences and stories has been her signature skill since early school days. The essence of what defines her today has evolved from writing. And it came with some superlatives: from driving off the world’s highest tee in South Africa to attending the world’s longest concert of a solo artist (27 hours, no sleep) in Paris. She likes to challenge herself and as a result is a late-starter in horse riding (early 20s), skiing and golfing (early 30s). Recently, she joined an ambitious soul and gospel choir. She loves music, tennis, literature - and above all spending time with her ten year old daughter and exploring the world through her eyes.
