Welcome
I am an accredited Business Innovation Coach working for public and private accelerators. With my support, startup and SME leaders discover ways to commercialise their technology solutions and organise their business for growth. When not coaching, I develop strategic partnerships with corporates in a Consultant capacity. Open innovation partnerships are successfully set up towards a more sustainable future.
My Story
For +20 years, I worked as Business and Marketing Consultant with technology startups and innovative SMEs and as a Key Account Director for technology Fortune 500, such as Apple, Analog Devices, Compaq, IBM and Texas Instruments, delivering strategic advice and leading a team delivering demand generation campaigns.
​
Since 2015, I have been helping Startup Founders commercialise their smart sensors, SaaS, AI, IoT, blockchain and deep tech innovation; to find ways to win faster, larger deals from water, wastewater, energy utilities as well as industrial companies in order to address numerous sustainability challenges. Between 2020 and 2021, I obtained the EMCC EIA accreditation as a Senior Practitioner, Workboard OKR coach, business continuity certificates to better serve my clients.
​​​
Hired by corporate incubators and public accelerators - such as the European Innovation Council (EIC), BlueInvest or Betaden North - I have coached +60 startups to date. We often explore "systems thinking" to mobilise all available environmental and business expertise so as to co-create change and accelerate the environmental transition. When not helping startups Founders, I coach Corporate Leaders via the CoachHub platform.
​​
My first-hand experience as a Director of a high-growth innovative SME gives me a sound understanding of the leadership challenges and solutions. Hence, where more appropriate than coaching, I am also hired directly to provide Interim Account Strategy Advice.
​
I'm always looking for new and exciting opportunities. Let's connect.
