I am a keen supporter and advisor of disruptive start-up businesses seeking to scale, develop value propositions, go-to-market plans, corporate businesses looking to innovate or move into new industries and markets. Previously the founder of a couple of entrepreneurial ventures, one of which was a vein recognition biometrics security and telematics business where I led strategic development, IP and commercialisation, raised angel & VC investment and client pipeline for prototype development.

My Executive MBA Dissertation back in 2015 ‘Rethinking business’ role in society, delivering profit with positive social impact – a critical review of the emerging case of purpose businesses’ developed my interest in mission and purpose driven businesses, design thinking, new business models and especially the emergence of the B-Corporation model & certification, 'One for One' business model and Circular Economy.
