Ingmar Konnow
XR Experience Designer | CTO & CDO | Creative Technologist | Freelance Innovator
Freelancer, Founder and repeat
I am Ingmar Konnow, a System Administrator, AI Architect, and Creative Technologist. My professional journey began as a freelancer—working for 3-4 years as a 3D Artist, Generalist, and Technical Artist—delivering high-quality assets and technical XR solutions for FMCG market research and immersive projects.
In my most recent role as CTO & CDO, I was responsible for the agile development of software products and WebGL platforms for market leaders such as Adidas, Volkswagen, Viessmann, Thyssenkrupp, and Jungheinrich. My focus was on user-centered, intuitive software and effective XR/Metaverse solutions.
My core strengths include agile product development, DevOps, team leadership, consulting, digital design, 3D art, and technical direction. I work analytically, independently, and quality-driven, advising companies and institutions in multi-dimensional product development.
After over 6 years as CDO & CTO and co-founder at weltfern—where my teams delivered projects contributing to over €1M in client revenue—I now operate as an independent consultant and creative technologist. With 8+ years of hands-on experience in real-time 3D/XR, spanning from content creation to technical leadership, my dual expertise as both a designer and engineer enables me to deliver innovative, reliable, and production-ready XR/AI solutions. This unique combination is the foundation I bring to every collaboration, supporting organizations in developing future-proof technical prototypes and impactful digital experiences.
