As a former CFO of multi-billion corporations and a successful venture capitalist, I have led and participated in multiple IPOs, ICOs, and private placements, generating over $ 300 million in value for my clients and partners. I have also done business and deals in more than 15 countries, gaining a global perspective and a diverse network. I enjoy mentoring young people who share my vision and values.

I thrive on thinking outside the box and solving the previously unsolvable. Innovation is the key to continuous growth, and in today’s age of digital disruption, I’m driven to be part of the change. Technology powers everything we do. That’s why I believe every organization—regardless of its industry—should adopt a technology-first strategy. Whether delivering lifestyle services, employee benefits programs, or consumer loyalty solutions, frictionless technology should be at the core. It’s about creating seamless, real-time connections that bring people together, no matter where they are in the world. By embracing innovation and leveraging the right technology, we can redefine experiences, enhance engagement, and drive meaningful impact.

Hello, I'm Dan! Originally from Devon, UK, I proudly call Sydney (Bondi) home. My passion for Technology and Connecting great people led me to Co-Found Launchpad Academy, 4Twenty Consulting & Tech Talks Australia. In my downtime, I'm either planning my next trip (⛷️🏔️🏝️), enjoying good foods, or doing anything outdoors and sports-related (🏉⚽️) Over the last decade, I've partnered with numerous leaders of Global and Local Technology Businesses to advise them on how to build their GTM teams across ANZ and APAC with 4Twenty Consulting. This journey inspired the creation of the Launchpad platform, where we are creating Australia's most prominent GTM Community 🚀 The Launchpad Platform is a community of seasoned GTM leaders, Executives, and Co-Founders from top tech companies across APAC. Our mission is threefold: 1️⃣ Empowering the next generation: Helping rising GTM stars break into and thrive in the industry through the support of our dedicated Mentor community. 2️⃣ Elevating our Mentors: Providing a platform for leaders to give back, grow their networks, and learn from peers in our exclusive, invite-only communities. 3️⃣ Driving growth in tech: Enabling businesses and individuals to leverage our AI enabled platform and community for learning, development, and success through AI enabled Development platform. Joining Launchpad is a chance to make a real impact on the future of tech while expanding your network, knowledge, and influence. If you’re passionate about shaping the GTM landscape and advancing the tech ecosystem, let’s connect. I’d love to share how you can be part of this movement!
