At the beginning of May, enomyc announced its partnership with Ufenau Capital Partners. The objective: to build a leading consulting platform for transformation and restructuring — initially across the German-speaking region, with a clear path toward international reach.

The production networks of most medium-sized companies have evolved over time. What may have been sensible and efficient years ago often no longer serves its purpose in an era of volatile demand, fluctuating customer orders, and short product life cycles. For example, if one plant is operating at full capacity while others are underutilized, alarm bells should be ringing in the executive suite. Christian Zeller and Max Stehr explain what companies can do in such situations, when certain measures make sense, and how the production footprint becomes a competitive advantage.

Many business owners first encounter the term IDW S 6 when dealing with banks or financing partners. This often gives the impression that it is a formal report or a regulatory formality for companies in crisis. However, as enomyc author Tom Hammer explains, a restructuring plan in accordance with IDW S 6 can do much more: when intelligently designed and implemented, it ensures clarity in corporate management and builds trust among financing partners—thereby laying the foundation for a sustainably successful future.

Only a fraction of German companies use blockchain in their daily practice. Does blockchain technology create more problems than solutions? Or does the decentralized system actually hold untold opportunities? How do companies benefit from stablecoins and DeFi? And how can blockchain solutions be implemented in German SMEs? Technology expert Franz A. Wenzel, Director at enomyc, answers burning business questions.

Der Markt für Künstliche Intelligenz (KI) boomt. Immer mehr Anbieter preisen ihre Lösungen an. Doch bei genauer Betrachtung entpuppt sich so manche vermeintlich intelligente Neuigkeit als Mogelpackung, schließlich lässt sich allein mit dem Label „Künstliche Intelligenz“ ordentlich Geld verdienen. Mittelständische Unternehmen stehen dadurch oft vor einem Dilemma: Einerseits möchten sie KI-Lösungen einführen, um beispielsweise von Effizienzsteigerungen zu profitieren, andererseits ist die Auswahl von Tools aufwändig und bleibt oft ohne Ergebnis. In ihrem Beitrag erklären die enomyc-Autoren Carla Dausend und Leonard Rampf, welche Fehler Unternehmen vermeiden sollten und was beim Einstieg ins Thema zu beachten ist.

US corporations such as Amazon and Walmart want to revolutionize the payment system. According to recent reports, they are working on minting their own digital currencies –Stablecoins. These promise faster payment processing, lower transaction costs, and complete control over payment flows. This is reason enough for German SMEs to take a closer look at the technology, say Franz Wenzel, Stella Weisser, and Tom Agsten from enomyc. The three have been working on blockchain and crypto topics for a long time and were on site at the Berlin Blockchain Week 2025 (BBW) to discuss and interact with other teams about the current trends and applications. In this article, they explain what is behind this trend toward digital payments—and how blockchain, Web3, and digital currencies is being translated into real business models.

In recent months, many small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) have faced existential crises due to challenging economic conditions, the unique structural situation in Germany, and the lasting effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. The situation has been further exacerbated by sharply rising capital costs, increased risk aversion among financiers, and repayment obligations from the pandemic period. According to enomyc author Dr. Stefan Frings, these multiple crises present the perfect opportunity for decisive and consistent action. Often, it takes significant pressure before stakeholders are willing to confront harsh realities and, with careful consideration, bring an end to long-standing but unsustainable practices.

While crises used to be exceptions, they have become a constant state due to the pandemic and wars. The business world is not exempt, with many companies currently facing turmoil. Martin Hammer, founder and managing partner of enomyc, has witnessed over a thousand companies in crisis and has successfully led many out of trouble. Here, he discusses the causes, symptoms, and the Tarragona Strategy, a proven concept in both medicine and business.
