About this Session
A focused session on identifying and accessing grant funding opportunities — covering national government grants, EU programmes (Horizon Europe, EIC, ERDF), and big tech grant schemes (Google, Microsoft, AWS, Meta). We'll assess your project's eligibility, positioning, and next steps. Where I have existing relationships with grant bodies and funders, I'm happy to make introductions directly.
Your mentor
I help founders navigate the high-stakes journey from initial traction to global scale. I am a 4x founder with a successful exit, a former corporate operator, and a seasoned turnaround specialist.
Over 15 years, I’ve coached 200+ founders across 25 countries and 15 different industries—spanning SaaS, Marketplaces, AI, and Web3.
Results:
• Rapid Scale: 4 companies hit $1M ARR within 16 months under my guidance.
• The Turnaround Expert: In the last year alone, I’ve led 5 successful turnarounds, including one venture that went from near-collapse to profitability in four months.
• Capital & Growth: Scaled a sales portfolio from $5M → $22M and have personally negotiated nine-figure deals.
• World-Class Feedback: I maintain a 4.9/5 coaching rating across B2B, B2C, and D2C sectors.
Why Me?
I bridge the gap between "scrappy startup" and "institutional excellence." My experience covers the full spectrum of modern tech: ConTech, HealthTech, FinTech, GovTech, LegalTech, and Sustainability.
I know how to pivot when it matters most. After raising $2.2M for Silta v1 (tokenization) and missing PMF, I pivoted the company to AI, secured seed funding from the Asian Development Bank ($150B+ in assets), and reached $1M ARR within 12 months.
I understand "Big Stakes" environments. Before coaching full-time, I spent a decade in infrastructure and M&A, acting as a buy-side advisor on a $67M toll road acquisition. I bring that same institutional rigor to the founders I mentor, including those within top-tier accelerators like Antler and Outlier Ventures.
