Berlin is Germany's startup capital and an AI-research hub — home to Helmholtz Center for AI, BIFOLD, Charité hospital network, Zalando, N26, Delivery Hero, and a thriving Series A-C scale-up ecosystem. NKKTech designs AI for Berlin companies with GDPR + EU AI Act + BSI Grundschutz awareness baked in. Senior engineers in Hanoi. Singapore-law MSA via NKKTech Global Pte. Ltd. — reduced withholding tax where the treaty applies (confirm with your tax adviser) under Germany-Singapore DTA. CET-aligned morning overlap. Documentation in German on request.
Six engagement patterns that fit Berlin-based companies — Mitte tech scale-ups, Charlottenburg Mittelstand and Adlershof research-driven companies. Built for European GDPR rigour, EU AI Act readiness, and Berlin's startup velocity.
EU GDPR + Bundesdatenschutzgesetz (BDSG-neu) + EU AI Act compliance built into engagement defaults: data classification, Auftragsverarbeitungsvertrag (AVV / DPA) templates, Standard Contractual Clauses for Vietnam transfers, named DPO contact, BSI-aligned breach-response runbook. EU AI Act risk-tier classification + Annex IV technical documentation.
BSI IT-Grundschutz and ISO 27001 alignment in delivery artefacts: technical security concepts, role-based access matrix, audit logging, incident response runbooks. We deliver auditor-ready documentation in either German or English — not a generic security overview.
Berlin moves faster than Frankfurt or Munich. We work at startup velocity: fixed-fee MVPs (8-12 weeks), Series A-C feature shipping, MVP-to-production hardening, EN-fluent senior engineers for international-facing teams. Helmholtz / BIFOLD / Charité research-to-production translation when academic founders are involved.
Vietnam GMT+7, Berlin CET/CEST. Our coverage: 2pm-5pm Vietnam = 8am-11am Berlin = 3-hour live overlap window for standups, demos, decisions. Senior engineers can shift to CET afternoon hours for critical sprints. Async-first documentation discipline keeps work moving overnight.
Engineering deliverables are in English (the Berlin tech ecosystem works heavily in English). Meetings and executive-review documents in German — including Lastenheft, Pflichtenheft and Betriebshandbuch — can be arranged for engagements with German-only stakeholders; we confirm the arrangement, and who provides it, at discovery, before you sign.
Default contracting entity is NKKTech Global Pte. Ltd. (Singapore UEN 202445701K). Germany-Singapore DTA may mean reduced withholding tax where the treaty applies (confirm with your tax adviser). EUR invoicing via European bank account (Wise Business). We do not have a German or EU entity or partner company. NDA + DPA templates GDPR-aligned.
30-60 minutes via Zoom or Teams, scheduled 8am-11am Berlin = our 2pm-5pm Vietnam. Tony joins for strategic; senior engineer for technical deep-dive. Outcome: written discovery summary + draft scope within 1 business day.
Singapore-law MSA + scoped SOW + EUR fixed-price quote + milestone schedule. AVV / DPA addendum included. EU AI Act risk classification + Annex IV draft if applicable. Written to be reviewed by your in-house Rechtsabteilung and Datenschutzbeauftragter.
CET-overlap sync (Berlin morning), weekly demo (CET), milestone-based payment via Pte Ltd invoicing in EUR. On-site visits at kickoff, mid-project and handoff can be arranged when the engagement needs them (Hanoi → Doha or Singapore → BER, ~18-21h total). Tight documentation discipline for GDPR + EU AI Act audit trails.
Production launch + comprehensive Betriebshandbuch + Schulungsunterlagen on request. Optional Wartungsvertrag (maintenance contract): typical retainer EUR 10-22K/month with locked engineer hours + SLA. Quarterly business reviews in CET.
Mitte + Kreuzberg + Friedrichshain scale-up ecosystem: AI MVP build, fixed-fee scoping, EN-fluent senior engineers, EU AI Act-compliant designs from day one. Series A-C feature shipping, MVP-to-production hardening, fractional senior team augmentation. Engagement starts EUR 50-120K fixed-fee.
Berlin FinTech and neobanks: customer-service GenAI in EN/DE, KYC document OCR, anti-fraud agents (PSD2-aware), transaction-categorisation models. BaFin + Bundesbank guidance alignment for licensed entities. EU AI Act-ready governance from day one.
Berlin e-commerce, delivery + logistics: product recommendation, content generation (multilingual), customer-service GenAI, fraud detection, dynamic pricing models. Privacy Act-aware patterns aligned with GDPR + EU AI Act consumer-impact tier.
Research-to-production translation: taking Helmholtz Center for AI + BIFOLD + Charité hospital network research code from academic prototype to production-ready systems. Compliance-aware (GDPR + BDSG-neu special-category data + EU AI Act high-risk classification for healthcare AI).
Berlin MedTech ecosystem + Charité hospital network: clinical-research workflows, multilingual literature review, EU MDR-aligned documentation, German-language patient-communication agents. EU AI Act high-risk classification handling.
Berlin public bodies and federal government suppliers: document automation, multilingual translation (DE + EN + Türkçe + RU + AR), internal knowledge agents. BSI Grundschutz + IT-SiG 2.0 + EU AI Act alignment. CCCS-equivalent design for sovereign-data workloads.
Default contracting entity is NKKTech Global Pte. Ltd. (Singapore). Germany-Singapore Double Taxation Agreement may mean reduced withholding tax where the treaty applies (confirm with your tax adviser). EUR invoicing via European bank account. We do not have a German or EU entity or partner company. If your procurement requires an EU contracting entity, raise it at discovery and we will say plainly whether we can meet that requirement.
Vietnam-Berlin is 5-6 hours depending on daylight saving. We commit to 2pm-5pm Vietnam = 8am-11am Berlin as core overlap: standups, demos, decisions live in your morning. Senior engineers can shift to CET afternoon hours for critical sprints (2pm-5pm Berlin = 8pm-11pm Vietnam). About 3 hours of strong live overlap.
Engineering deliverables are in English — the Berlin tech ecosystem operates heavily in English. Meetings and executive-review documents in German — Lastenheft, Pflichtenheft, Betriebshandbuch, Schulungsunterlagen, AVV / DPA, Sicherheitskonzept — can be arranged for engagements with German-only stakeholders; we confirm the arrangement, and who provides it, at discovery, before you sign.
GDPR + BDSG-neu + EU AI Act are engagement defaults: AVV / DPA addendum, SCCs for Vietnam transfers, named DPO contact, ICO/Datenschutzbehörde-aligned 72-hour breach response, DPIA templates. For EU AI Act, we classify risk tier upfront (e.g., healthcare = high-risk, content recommendation = limited-risk) and produce Annex IV technical documentation.
AI MVP (10-14 weeks): EUR 50-120K fixed-fee. Series B/C scale-up engagement (4-6 months): EUR 150-270K per phase (indicative, up to USD 300K); larger multi-phase programmes are quoted phase by phase. Wartungsvertrag (ongoing ops + feature work): EUR 10-22K/month with locked engineer hours + SLA. All fixed-fee — no T&M surprises. 1-week paid scoping engagement before any large commitment.
