C-Level Digital Strategist | Ex-Tech Founder (M&A)
About Me
As a former corporate executive and successful tech entrepreneur (with exit experience and 30+ years of senior leadership), I partner with your management team to develop digital strategies that strengthen market position and create sustainable shareholder value. From boardroom vision to scalable execution – with proven enterprise frameworks and measurable business impact.
Core Value Proposition
- 30+ years of leadership experience in complex matrix organizations. I understand the challenges of corporate governance, compliance requirements, and stakeholder management from hands-on C-level practice – from startup founding to corporate executive leadership.
- As a strategic advisor or interim executive, I become part of your leadership team. I don't just develop strategies – I take operational responsibility for critical digital initiatives from conception to successful market launch.
- Unique combination of deep technology expertise (PhD Computer Science) and M&A experience. From system architecture to boardroom presentations – I speak both languages and translate between IT and business strategy.
