With nearly 20 years at BMW Group in senior roles across headquarters and international markets, Franz Wimmer most recently led VinFast’s European launch as VP Sales & Marketing. Since 2022, he has focused on AI-driven technologies in the automotive sector, where he co-founded and invested in ventures that support OEMs and retailers with AI and data-powered solutions.
He is Chief Revenue Officer and co-owner of Intellegam—acquired by Infomedia in 2025—where he drives Intellegams’ automotive focus. He believes: ‘AI is still a mystery to many—but soon it’ll be mission-critical. It’s the key to unlocking efficiency, tackling cost pressure, and surviving the skilled labour crunch.’
