Summary
Jörg Wurzer is a Managing Director and entrepreneurial technologist with eight years of formal experience and a two-decade track record founding and leading companies that bridge philosophy, semantic technology and product innovation. He combines a PhD-level background in philosophy and epistemology with hands-on R&D in NLP, machine learning and semantic middleware to create privacy-first, distraction-minimizing products such as the Volla smartphone.
