Responsibilities

Deborah is a young polyglot professional working in the Digital Technologies and Start-up Ecosystem Department of the German Energy Agency (dena) in Berlin. After graduating in European Politics and Society, an Erasmus Mundus Master’s programme held in Prague, Leiden and Kraków, she moved to Paris for a traineeship at the French Parliament, where her work focused on defence and energy policy.

She continued her career with a Blue Book traineeship at DG DEFIS, fostering the market uptake of satellite data applications in climate protection. After a brief period as a consultant on environment-related dossiers, she found her vocation at dena. There, she connects innovators with investors and policymakers globally to enable greater capital mobilisation for a green energy transition.

Having lived in ten countries, and passionate and knowledgeable about climate action and the nexus of geopolitics, competitiveness, politics and society, she is committed to playing her part in a just transition.
