// FK.PROFILE / BETWEEN BUSINESS AND IT

Bridging Business and IT. I translate. I simplify. I build the solution.

25 years standing between the business and the IT. I translate the noise into a solution that ships. AI is the current tool. Blockchain, tokenisation, IoT, smart cities, Industry 4.0, mobile and web came before. The tools change each cycle; the discipline does not. I design the AIOS framework behind real businesses, run the venture studio Fintery, and take the boards, faculty, and founder seats that go with them.

↳ FK.PROFILE(name, role, signal) v. 2026.1

// FK.PRACTICE / Translation, Solutions, Ventures
What I do

Solutions that ship. Common sense applied with rigour.

Strategic advisory

Board level advisory that turns ambition into systems that ship. Strategy, operating model, governance. The work is to find the actual problem under the AI, blockchain or digital wrapper, then design the solution everyone can build. 25 years of cross sector delivery across insurance, banking, mobility, energy and industrial.

The AIOS framework

AIOS is my framework for running a modern business: a five level decision model for priorities, trade offs and direction, applied at board and team rhythm. AI is its native medium, the logic outlasts the tool. Subject of my book, AIOS, The AI Operating System Framework for Modern Business.

Ventures, built and run

I found and operate companies where the technology is the spine, not a bolted on feature. TAKO (CRM for European sales teams), MarinMaster (offline marine operations companion), Alakai (diagnostic engine for execution problems dressed up as AI problems) and more.

The venture studio

Fintery is the venture studio behind the portfolio. One operating system, three product layers, live ventures across maritime, hospitality, energy and presence. The studio is the holding; the operating logic is the IP.

Questions worth the seam

Who is Florian Krüger?+
Florian Krüger (also written Florian Krueger) sits between the business and the IT. Translator, venture architect, simplifier of the complex. 25 years building at the intersection of emerging technology and enterprise reality. AI is the current tool. Blockchain, tokenisation, IoT, smart cities, Industry 4.0, mobile and web came before. The tools change each cycle; the discipline does not. Created the AIOS framework, has advised AXA, BMW, Citibank, Bank of America and Siemens, holds faculty appointments at MIT and Singularity University, and is the founder of TAKO, MarinMaster and the Fintery venture studio.
What kind of advisory does Florian Krüger do?+
Strategic advisory for boards and leadership teams: strategy, operating model and governance. The work is to find the actual problem under the AI, blockchain or digital wrapper, then design the solution everyone can build. 25 years of cross sector delivery and the AIOS framework underneath. The focus is solutions that ship, not slideware. The fastest route is florian@floriankrueger.com.
What is AIOS, the AI Operating System?+
AIOS is Florian Krüger's framework for running a modern business: a five level decision model for priorities, trade offs and direction, applied at board and team rhythm.

What is the venture studio?+
Fintery is a venture studio that designs, ships, and runs companies where the technology is the spine, not a bolted on feature. One operating system across a portfolio of live ventures, including TAKO, MarinMaster and Alakai, so each company is a market test of the same operating logic.
What does a venture architect actually do?+
A venture architect designs the operating system behind a business: strategy, technology stack and commercial model. Then builds and runs it as a real venture rather than a slide deck. In practice that means founding companies, sitting on boards, and turning the convergence of AI, data, privacy, IoT and the rest into products that ship and generate revenue.
What is Florian available for?+
Board seats, advisory mandates, founder and operating roles, and faculty appointments. Most useful when a problem sits between two disciplines and neither owner is sure which one. Availability is global. The fastest route is florian@floriankrueger.com.
What sectors and technologies does he focus on?+
AI and machine learning, distributed ledger and tokenisation, data privacy and sovereignty (GDPR / DORA), IoT, smart cities, Industry 4.0, AR/VR, quantum and payment rails. Applied across insurance, banking, mobility, energy, maritime and industrial. The recurring theme is insurance economics and the behavioural data that drives renewals.
What has he written?+
Two books. AIOS, The AI Operating System Framework for Modern Business, a practical framework for turning AI ambition into execution. And Real, Executable, Investable, a diligence lens for separating ventures that ship from those that pitch. Both are available on Amazon.
Where is he based and what languages does he work in?+
Based in Porto, Portugal, with offices in London, Spain and Germany. Available globally. He operates in German, English, French, Italian and Spanish.
