What I Do - Consulting

I work across three areas - consulting, education, and venture building. They're not separate tracks. Each one informs the others, and together they're what makes the work useful.

Not sure which area is most relevant for you? Most engagements end up drawing on more than one. Feel free to reach out and we can figure out what makes sense.

Who I work with

I work with organizations and founders on innovation strategy, venture building, and market access - helping them move from idea to validated value. This isn't advisory from the outside. I get into the work with the team, apply structured frameworks and adapt them to reality, and stay accountable to real outcomes.

My consulting spans a wide range of industries and contexts - from early-stage startups needing to validate their first assumption, to multinationals building innovation culture from the inside, to government institutions designing ecosystem programmes.
