The Great Redesign

Matthias Schrader is one of Europe's digital pioneers. He founded digital marketing and advertising agency SinnerSchrader in the mid-90s and began to develop e-commerce solutions for startups like Intershop, Ricardo and buecher.de, enabling them to go public earlier than expected. In 1999, SinnerSchrader issued a public offering of its own and was one of only a handful of fledgling companies that survived the so-called "new economy" and actually emerged strengthened by the experience. In 2006, Schrader founded the NEXT Conference which has become the leading symposium for digital transformation in Europe. In 2017, the worldwide management and technology consultancy Accenture took a controlling interest in SinnerSchrader for a nine-figure sum. Since 2018, Matthias Schrader is leading Accenture Interactive in Germany, Austria and Switzerland.
