Insights in Motion: Christian’s Story

Christian shares how curiosity, problem-solving, and moments of clarity on the run shape his work in PIPE (Principal Investors & Private Equity) at BCG Platinion London.

In private equity and technology, no two days look the same. For Christian, a consultant in BCG Platinion’s PIPE (Principal Investors & Private Equity) team, that unpredictability is exactly what makes the work exciting. His projects help investors understand how technology influences the value of an asset, from early assessments to post-acquisition opportunities.

Christian describes PIPE as a space where technical depth meets commercial impact. Each project requires looking beyond systems and architecture to understand how technology drives - or limits - value creation. It’s fast-paced, analytical, and deeply collaborative. And, as he describes, some of the best thinking happens when he steps away from the screen and runs home, letting ideas settle while the city moves around him.

Technology is evolving so fast that there’s no template. Creative problem-solving is a key part of the job.

A big part of what keeps Christian motivated is the team around him. BCG Platinion’s London office brings together people from different countries, backgrounds, and areas of expertise. Every project is a chance to learn from colleagues who see problems through different lenses; a dynamic he believes accelerates both personal and professional growth.

Exposure to multiple industries and technologies also shapes his journey. With each due diligence, he builds a broader understanding of how organizations operate, where value is created, and how innovation shifts entire sectors. For Christian, this variety is what makes PIPE both challenging and rewarding.
