Monika Langthaler
Managing Partner
Monika Langthaler
Monika knows what is needed for climate protection and is happy to put her plans into practice – whether as a research assistant at the Institute of Ecology, from 1990 as the youngest member of the Austrian Parliament at the time and, of course, since 2000 with her own company brainbows. Since climate change does not stop at national borders, it is also clear to Monika that her commitment needs an international component: As Managing Director of the Schwarzenegger Climate Initiative, she organizes the AUSTRIAN WORLD SUMMIT every year, one of the largest international climate conferences in the world.

Nina Fool
Junior Consultant
Nina Fool
She seems quiet and reserved at first, but quickly develops the strength and energy of a lioness when something needs to be done. The reason we use animal comparisons here is that Nina studied wildlife management and is particularly well versed in environmental and biodiversity systems. She brings this knowledge to our team with her charming manner and supports us with every tricky piece of research.

Christian Nohel
Managing Partner
Christian Nohel
Christian discovered his passion for environmental and climate protection at the latest when he occupied the Hainburger Au in 1984. As a veteran of the ecology movement, he has been committed to a sustainable world ever since – first in science, then in politics and since 2000 with his own company brainbows. He is known and appreciated for always combining his commitment with fun and humor. He connects people with charm and wit and inspires many a decisive climate protection measure with foresight and sensitivity.

Christopher Resch
Omniscient – this attribute applies to Christoph when it comes to details about climate protection, the energy industry and decarbonization. As an expert, he is always up to date and always in contact with the right people. When he’s not talking about the transformation, he’s raving about his pickled vegetables – which we also love to enjoy in the office.

Markus Schneidergruber

As a sustainability expert, Markus knows all the “ESG waters”. In his consulting work, he not only scores points with his expertise in ecology and sustainability, but also with his calm, positive manner, with which he reinforces the feeling that everything is achievable. But he also has a strict eye – when he checks and certifies green events and green productions as such.

Alexander Schröck
Senior Consultant for Event Management
Alexander Schröck
Alex already had an eye for the essentials during his scientific projects, his company studies and his teaching assignment at the University of Vienna before he switched to the consulting industry.
