COLLIN CROOME

I have been advising international brands on digital transformation for 30 years.

Hi, I'm Collin Croome, internet and metaverse pioneer and sought-after keynote speaker for future trends such as generative AI and the metaverse.

I have been supporting international companies and brands on their journey into the digital future for more than 30 years. During this time, I have implemented over 800 successful digital projects for top brands and built up a wealth of experience in the process.

I founded my first digital agency in the mid-1990s and have been supporting well-known companies, particularly in the fashion and lifestyle sector, ever since. From the first Website for Apple in 1996, through innovative social media campaigns to the implementation of metaverse strategies on the web 3, I have been able to implement numerous visionary projects and successfully lead brands into the digital world.

As an "early adopter", I have always enjoyed using the tools of tomorrow. I share my knowledge with passion and a love of innovation in visually stunning and practical Keynotesthat inspire people for the future. My goal is to motivate companies and their employees to recognize technological opportunities, actively use them and help shape their digital future - in a practical, inspiring and visionary way.

Through my daily work, I know both the opportunities and the challenges of digital transformation. I share this knowledge as a strategy consultant, book author and lecturer. I inspire thousands of people every year with my presentations. TV station such as ProSiebenSat.1 and RTL regularly consulted me as a digital expert.

The digital revolution of the 90s

In 1991, there was no digital training - so I started my own business at the age of 19 and just got started... "Learning by doing" is still my motto today.

In 1992, I developed the first German multimedia seminar for Apple Computer, in which I taught the basics of interactive multimedia and the use of software tools such as Director, Premiere and Photoshop.

At the same time, I developed Medialab - one of the first multimedia agencies in Germany - interactive multimedia applications on CD-ROM and programmed the Apple Live Website. In 1996, I was one of the first online bloggers to go on tour with Justin Timberlake & N'SYNC.

During this exciting time, I worked as a marketing consultant and multimedia producer for various agencies, publishing houses and media companies.

This allowed me to play an active role in shaping the digital revolution of the 1990s.

My first job: Apple

In 1991, I applied to Apple Computer in Munich by floppy disk. The marketing manager at the time found the multimedia application exciting and gave me a chance.

The task: At the CeBit computer trade fair, I was asked to give a presentation on Apple & multimedia several times a day. The audience and the client liked it and I discovered my passion for the stage.

I then worked for Apple for over ten years as a multimedia evangelist, trainer and speaker at many European conferences and trade fairs. I still advise the inventor of the Macintosh and iPhone today.

My agency: coma2 e-branding

In 1997, I founded my own internet agency for digital brand management with two partners. In 23 years, my great team and I have implemented well over 800 successful digital projects, online marketing solutions and social media campaigns. Always with the aim of achieving the best possible brand and user experience as well as the highest aesthetic and technical standards.

To the Customers My agency includes well-known international premium brands and companies such as Audi, Hugo Boss, Betty Barclay, JOOP, OLYMP, Triumph, Baldessarini, Microsoft, TUI and Deutsche Telekom.

My next BIG thing: The Metaverse

The metaverse will be the next evolutionary stage of the internet, in which the virtual and real physical worlds increasingly merge. It will permanently change the way we live, work, learn, communicate and consume.

Digital trends and technologies have always been my great passion. It all started in 1991 with multimedia, followed by the World Wide Web in 1994 and social media in 2004. 2023 was the breakthrough of artificial intelligence. I have actively used all of these fundamental developments from the very beginning, applying them to my clients' marketing and organizing training courses and seminars. Lectures held.

For me, the Metaverse is the next natural and evolutionary step in my career. Since 2021 I have been holding Metaverse lectures, give TV interviewsadvise customers on their Metaverse strategy and already have two Metaverse books written.

The future: Generative AI

I have been fascinated by artificial intelligence since the beginning of the 1990s and have repeatedly explored the possibilities and implications.

Even though the AI winter lasted decades, the release of ChatGPT-3 in November 2022 changed EVERYTHING: It has never been so easy to create professional content with the help of Generative AI. Artificial intelligence will become a normal part of our private and business lives and increase our productivity and creativity enormously. It will not only fundamentally change the way we use computers and software, but also the way we live, work, learn and communicate.

Since 2022 I have held AI lectures about the possibilities and effects on our working world and provide fascinating insights into the diverse possibilities of generative AI models such as ChatGPT, Bard or Midjourney.

I am looking forward to the future: This Journey is 1% finished.
