Steffen Robbi

DI Dr. Steffen Robbi is a keynote speaker, founder and managing director of the innovation lab Digital Findet Stadt (DFS), a platform driving digital innovation in the construction and real-estate sector across the entire asset lifecycle (plan, build, operate). He is described as an internationally sought-after keynote speaker, seminar leader and university lecturer, and is known for presenting complex transformation topics in a way that creates suspense, shifts perspectives and truly brings the audience along, without buzzwords, but with a clear narrative thread and strong imagery.

On stage, he combines energy, storytelling and motivation with what many decision-makers actually need: substance. When the audience or the format calls for it, Robbi goes deep, ranging from Machine Learning and Deep Learning to Natural Language Processing and Computer Vision, as well as Automation, Data Science and AI Ethics. The result is real value: he makes clear what is technically realistic today, where typical misconceptions lie, how impact can be measured, and which organizational prerequisites (data foundations, processes, skills and governance) determine success or standstill.

His perspective is shaped by several years at the AIT Austrian Institute of Technology in Digital Building Technologies (including roles as business manager and project lead), as well as his scientific and engineering background. One guiding principle runs through his work: digital transformation must be measurable in productivity, quality, cost and resource efficiency, while being implemented responsibly.

Whether keynote, impulse talk or deep-dive session, Robbi balances stage presence with technical depth, leaving audiences not only inspired, but with concrete ideas that stick and spark discussion.
