A smiling woman with gray hair, wearing a black blazer and white shirt, standing on a staircase in an indoor setting.

Thirty-five years in enterprise IT. Twenty of them inside consumer goods.

Robin Horstmann has spent more than two decades running technology inside consumer goods manufacturers and distributors, across home textiles, licensed apparel, wellness products, pet food, and packaged food. ERP implementations and recoveries, enterprise architecture, cybersecurity, and the warehouse, transportation, and plant floor systems that run operations. She is currently implementing generative and agentic AI.

She wrote The Governed Enterprise because no CPG-specific AI governance guide existed when she was earning her first AI governance credential.
