Senior expertise for complex IoT, telecom and automotive connectivity challenges

IoT42 GmbH

IoT42 is a specialized consulting company focused on IoT, automotive connectivity, telecommunications and digital integration. The company works at the intersection of technology, business, legal requirements and delivery reality — where most complex programs actually succeed or stall.

The work is intentionally narrow in scope. We do not try to cover every adjacent domain. Where IoT42 engages, it engages with depth.

Lorenz Schirmer

Founder and managing director of IoT42, Lorenz brings 30+ years of experience in IT, telecommunications, mobile networks, IoT and M2M, data privacy, requirements engineering, solution design and organizational development.

His track record spans automotive OEM connectivity programs across Europe and North America, MNO core network operations, GDPR alignment in connected-vehicle services, and senior delivery roles in cross-organizational programs.

What clients consistently emphasize: clarity in ambiguous situations, calm and reliable execution, pragmatic stakeholder handling, and the willingness to take ownership where others hesitate.
