Turning Innovation Into Scalable Growth
I work with founders and leadership teams to turn technology and innovation into clear strategies, stronger partnerships and sustainable business opportunities.
With more than 25 years of experience across digital twins, modelling and simulation, AI, geospatial, transportation, telecom and smart cities, I bring a practical business perspective to complex technology-driven opportunities.
How I Can Help
Strategy & Growth
Helping founders clarify their strategic direction, identify growth opportunities and translate ambitious ideas into actionable plans.
Go-To-Market
Developing market positioning, customer strategies and go-to-market plans that connect technology with real customer needs.
Strategic Alliances
Building partnerships that create mutual value, bridging new markets and accelerate growth.
Investor Readiness
Helping founders prepare for investor conversations, strengthen their pitch and developing credible financial forecasts and business plans.
Commercial Strategy
Providing perspective on intellectual property and how technology can support competitive advantage, partnerships and commercialization.
Specialist Network
Depending on what you need, I can bring in experienced product, marketing and other specialists to complement my advisory work.
How I Work
An experienced sounding board.
Building a startup means making important decisions with incomplete information. I work alongside founders as an advisor, mentor and strategic sparring partner - bringing an outside perspective, challenging assumptions and helping turn complex questions into clear priorities and next steps.
My approach is collaborative, direct and focused on results.
More clarity. Better decisions. Meaningful progress.
