After studying business administration in Stuttgart, Michael Klumpp began his career in controlling at MTU Munich, a manufacturer of engines for the aviation industry. He first came into contact with mergers and acquisitions as an assistant to the management of a leading German construction group during the takeover of several construction companies. He then worked for four years in Frankfurt at the German branch of the US software company Hyperion – most recently as head of a team of 40 IT consultants.
