Selected work

Product, market, decision

Not a CV list. Myco is a product. Nixtee is a market. CzechGlobe and the books are decisions.

product

Starting point: Mycelium experiments. Mushroom packaging existed as a trial, not as production.
What I did: I co-founded Myco (since 2019). I am managing director and I lead R&D. We built our own production line with continuous sterilisation. The material, mycelium and waste, is meant to replace polystyrene.
Result: Red Dot Award 2024, Product Design, Start-up category. E.ON Energy Globe 2022, 1st place in the Czech Republic. Energy Globe World Award 2022, jury recognition. Generali SME EnterPRIZE 2023, 1st place. Central European Startup Awards 2025, Edition 11, Startup of the Year in the Energy Efficiency category. German Economy Award 2023, special prize (ČNOPK) as part of Vodafone Idea of the Year 2022.

market

Starting point: Training a neural network burns GPU time before you know whether the network is worth it.
What I did: I co-founded Nixtee and I run it as CEO. The platform predicts network performance before training and saves compute.
Result: Member of NVIDIA Inception.

decision

Starting point: Institute communication ran ad hoc.
What I did: 2023–2025 technologist for technology transfer and industrial use of wood-decaying fungi. January–July 2026 Head of the Communications and External Relations Department. I built the strategic communication function.
Result: Communication moved from an ad-hoc activity to a structured system tied to the research.
