Thorsten Schliesche

Geschäftsführer | grüüün Münch Energie

Thorsten Schliesche is the CEO of the electricity provider grüüün — a brand of the Münch Energy Group that has set itself the goal of radically simplifying the electricity market: fair, sustainable, transparent. With over 20 years of experience in digital business, Thorsten Schliesche brings a refreshingly unconventional perspective to brand building, customer loyalty, and system transformation. He began his career in the music and digital industry: as managing director of Napster Germany and later executive vice president Europe at Napster/Rhapsody International Inc., he was responsible for the development and European expansion of the streaming service from 2005 to 2017 and played a decisive role in shaping the market entry of digital music platforms in Germany. Today, the chemical engineer is transferring this spirit of transformation to the energy industry. With grüüün, he is developing a direct supply model that dispenses with intermediaries and uses artificial intelligence—and shows that security of supply, climate protection, and economic efficiency do not have to be contradictory.
