What studiomem does

studiomem GmbH is a Munich-based boutique innovation and design consultancy founded in 2009 by Anne Schlosser (CEO) and Rudolf Voigt. The firm delivers strategic foresight, business design, and end-to-end product and service design services to enterprise clients across Europe, EMEA, and Asia Pacific, with named engagements spanning Vodafone (telecom), Haier, Melitta, Fissler, and Gaggenau (kitchen appliances), a German premium medtech company, and a leading German energy utility. Its practice serves large corporates and established brands seeking future-proof business models, alongside startups supported via venture building.

The firm organizes its offering into two streams: Business Design — including Visioneering (a registered-trademark foresight methodology that pairs forecasting with backcasting over 7+ year Horizon-3 scenarios), Data Innovation (a big-data and design-thinking service line), Innovation Labs (in-house conferences, design sprints, maker labs), and a Venture Builder — and Experience Design, spanning Service, Digital UX/UI, Industrial, and Graphics/Packaging design delivered from fuzzy front end through commercial launch. Through a strategic partnership with data analytics firm Panoratio, the firm operates Memoratio, a data-driven venture builder that fuses big data, AI, and human-centered design to spin out ventures such as Tendero, NCover, Spectodata, and Gaiaa.

Revenue is generated through project-based professional services — consulting, coaching, workshops, and venture-building engagements — sold via direct outreach, website inquiries, and industry events such as Munich Creative Business Week; pricing is quote-driven and not publicly disclosed. The firm maintains an in-house venture portfolio that supplements services revenue with potential long-tail upside. Ownership remains with the two co-founders, headcount is in the 11–50 boutique band, and no external funding rounds, institutional investors, or M&A activity are disclosed.
