MERIDIUM

What MERIDIUM does

Meridium AG Steuerberatungsgesellschaft is a Berlin-based German tax and financial reporting advisory firm founded in 2006, operating as a Steuerberatungsgesellschaft under the regulatory framework of the StBerG, BOStB, and StBVV. The firm targets companies in the IT, technology, and digital business sectors, offering four defined service lines: International Tax Law advisory for cross-border activities, Legal Restructuring tax guidance, Transfer Pricing for intercompany transactions, and Tax Declaration preparation. Service delivery follows a traditional professional-services model via direct client engagement from its Berlin headquarters at Dudenstraße 10, without any disclosed software product platform.

The firm's commercial model is fee-for-service professional advisory, with pricing for standard activities governed by the Steuerberatervergütungsverordnung (StBVV) and bespoke arrangements permissible under §§ 612(2)/632(2) BGB and §4(3) StBVV. Contracts may span multiple years and may require Vorschuss (advance) payments. Go-to-market is sales-led, relying on direct outreach, professional referrals, and memberships in GPC Tax (a federation of German tax advisory firms), IECnet (international tax/accounting network), StBK Berlin, IHK Berlin, and SIBB (Berlin-Brandenburg software/ICT industry association). Distribution is single-country domestic via direct advisory engagements, although the firm asserts European and global market reach through IECnet.

Governance follows the German AG two-tier board structure: two individually authorized Vorstand members — Diplom-Kaufmann Holger Schildt and Diplom-Kaufmann (FH) Daniel Ziska, both licensed Steuerberater conferred in Hamburg — manage the firm, with Frank Rottenbacher as Chairman of the Auffsichtsrat. The company is registered at Amtsgericht Berlin Charlottenburg HRB 101202, has 11-50 employees, and operates as a private entity under the GPC Tax umbrella. No revenue, funding rounds, M&A activity, or proprietary technology assets are disclosed; the firm's website displays placeholder zero values for experience and tax-processing statistics, indicating either limited public-facing marketing maturity or undisclosed internal metrics.
