I am a serial entrepreneur with a specific interest in the longer term effects and benefits of entrepreneurial activity. This is also one of my key considerations when investing. I focus specifically on early stage.

Currently I am driving the startup program at MonacoTech, a Monaco government initiative. Here I am responsible for guiding the members growth journey which includes liaising with mentors, service providers and investors.

I also mentor companies in Estonia and Latvia as well as Cyprus and the Netherlands.
