Florian Wiethof
Florian Wiethof did his M. Sc. in Mechanical Engineering, a double B. Sc. in Mechanical and Industrial Engineering at the University of Paderborn, and a vocational training as Industrial Mechanic at the IHK. He was a dual student at BENTELER GmbH throughout his studies. Outside of work and studies, he spent four years building race cars, ultimately leading a team of 80 people while developing vehicle dynamics simulations, carbon fibre structures, three different vehicle prototypes and iterations (combustion, electric, driverless), and a medical respirator at the start of COIVD. In 2020, after his studies, he moved to Munich to get a foothold in the entrepreneurial world. He co-founded and developed a conferencing platform to connect new students affected by COVID. In the class of Fall ‘21, he joined the CDTM. He worked as a tech venture builder at Picus Capital for a year, then focused on more sociological topics. He spent some time in psychological research at LMU, then as a high school teacher in math and physics, and lead a CDTM course for a semester. Afterwards, he decided to stay full-time as a CA in August ‘23. After long exploration in musical, educational, sociological, and game theoretical research, he combined his passion for math and human behaviour through sociophysical research, trying to mathematically explain human cognition. Florian is currently co-owning eLab and owning the BM&P.
