CEO of Mercedes-Benz Tech Innovation, scaling global software and enterprise AI.

## About

Daniel Geisel leads the global software organization at Mercedes-Benz as CEO of Mercedes-Benz Tech Innovation. He focuses on turning isolated technical hubs across Spain, South Africa, India, and Malaysia into a single integrated engineering unit.

His work bridges automotive heritage with modern development practices. Daniel focuses on moving enterprise AI from isolated pilots to large-scale production, arguing that real adoption requires shifting architecture and culture rather than just buying new tools.
