How every conversation ends

What mark do you hope to leave?

It is the question behind the name, and the reflection many guests close on.

Meet the host

Markus Lacher

Entrepreneur, Technology Innovator & Founder of Aeviya

With more than 30 years of experience in business, technology, and software consulting, Markus Lacher has built a career around solving complex problems and challenging conventional thinking. Originally from Germany, Markus moved to the United States in 2004, bringing with him an entrepreneurial spirit and a passion for technology. Over the years, he has owned and operated multiple businesses and worked extensively as a business and software consultant, helping organizations modernize their operations, implement enterprise solutions, and navigate technological change.

Today, as Founder and CEO of Aeviya, Markus is pursuing one of his most ambitious ventures yet: building an artificial intelligence company focused on making advanced technology practical, accessible, and valuable to businesses. His philosophy is simple: technology should empower people, not replace them. He believes the greatest innovations aren't necessarily the most complicated ones, but those that solve real problems and make something possible that previously seemed out of reach.

Beyond business, Markus is a devoted father who has spent much of the past 12 years involved in motocross through his son's passion for the sport. He enjoys traveling, exploring new places with his camper, and maintaining an active lifestyle through fitness and strength training. His natural curiosity about people and their experiences also inspired him to launch Mark Us Now, a podcast where he connects with entrepreneurs, business leaders, and individuals willing to share their journeys, challenges, and lessons learned.

At 57, when many professionals begin considering retirement, Markus chose to take another entrepreneurial leap. For him, experience isn't a reason to slow down; it's a foundation for taking on bigger challenges. Whether building companies, embracing new technologies, or spending time with family, he approaches life with curiosity, determination, and the belief that it's never too late to create something extraordinary.
