2025 ushers in a new chapter for Resaro: we’ve officially opened our European co-headquarters in Munich, Germany.
Our new European office will allow us to expand our capabilities in testing and evaluation — work that lies at the heart of ensuring AI systems can be trusted to deliver on their promises.
We are excited to have Olly Salzmann, CEO of Resaro (Germany), and Dr. Sebastian Hallensleben, Chief Trust Officer, join the team. Their leadership and experience will be central to growing Resaro’s suite of trusted testing and evaluation tools and services in the global AI market.
Olly Salzmann brings over 20 years of experience in digital transformation, technology ecosystems, AI infrastructure, and IT forensic. He has held senior leadership roles, including Partner at Deloitte Germany and IT Audit Director at Siemens. With a proven track record in managing large-scale projects, Olly combines technical expertise with an entrepreneurial mindset.
Olly is also a board member and co-founder of KI Park e.V., a Berlin-based organisation that aligns closely with Resaro’s mission of enabling an AI market worthy of trust.
In Olly’s words:
“Technology disrupts the way we work, and we need to make sure it is worthy of trust. I’m eager to help the industry and government enhance and accelerate the identification and integration of AI software into their operations, improving capabilities across sectors.”
A prominent figure in AI governance, Dr. Sebastian Hallensleben has dedicated over 25 years to shaping networks, frameworks, and standards for strategic dialogues and digital trust. As former Head of AI and Digital Trust at VDE, his expertise has informed key policies for responsible AI development across Europe.
Sebastian chairs the CEN-CENELEC Joint Technical Committee 21, driving the creation of European AI standards under the European Commission’s mandate. On the international stage, he co-chairs OECD groups, working towards global regulatory alignment for AI.
Sebastian shares his perspective:
“Trust in AI must be earned through specificity and alignment, not only within Europe but also globally. At Resaro, we drill down into the ground truths of AI, measuring what these systems can really achieve while dispassionately examining their limits.”
“With Olly and Sebastian leading our efforts in Europe, Resaro is well-positioned to drive assurance and testing of AI solutions that can travel across jurisdictions and bridge governance and technical teams. I’m looking forward to working together as one team to harness the strengths of Singapore and Europe to advance our mission to enable a global AI market that is worthy of trust.” — April Chin, CEO (Singapore) of Resaro.
As we expand our reach, we are actively growing our team to help shape the future of AI governance. If you share our commitment to building trustworthy AI systems, we encourage you to explore career opportunities at resaroai.bamboohr.com/careers.
Quality and governance, in our view, are inseparable. For an AI system to perform as intended, it must also inspire justified trust in those who use it. This trust comes from rigorous, domain-specific testing with contextual metrics that go beyond baselines, addressing the unique requirements of each use case.
We are on a mission to build a global AI assurance and testing company that is trusted with best-in-class tools and services to provide you with the ability to automate, scale, and harness the performance of your AI solutions in a trustworthy manner.
