Mario F. Ruckh’s Summary
Having studied Strategic Communication and Planning at the University of the Arts Berlin I spent some time in advertising agencies in Hamburg and Berlin where I was working for clients like Deutsche Telekom, Mercedes-Benz or McKinsey. I looked into b-2-b marketing at T-Systems in Paris, where I worked on improving tools for the sales team and helped setting up a central product database.
My diploma was about financial valuation of brands, but I wanted to learn more about business and joined the French "grande école" ESCP-Europe for a business degree that also took me to Delhi and London.
I joined a couple of ex-Skype employees with the challenge of creating an internet startup and we have built kindo.com, a network for families, which was acquired by MyHeritage a bit more than a year later. By now I am keeping together the international marketing team of MyHeritage.
I appreciate innovative environments, bold visions and room for ideas.
I enjoyed co-initiating projects like a conference on non-profit marketing (www.bruttosozialpreis.de), the publishing of a book (www.initiative-sozialmarketing.de or www.amazon.de) and co-founding a student communications agency (Linie 6). This was also where I developed a team-oriented, strategic and success-oriented approach to tasks.
I am fluent in English, German and French.
