About

A product management and growth strategy executive with over 18 years' experience, I specialize in bridging the physical and digital worlds. At Synapse, part of Capgemini Invent, I work with ambitious clients to build novel deep-tech products leveraging IoT, edge AI, robotics, and geospatial technologies. My mission is to create and deliver value for customers and stakeholders across hi-tech, manufacturing, automotive, utilities, and foodtech/retail markets. I have a proven track record of developing cutting-edge products, building strategic alliances at large companies, and launching and growing successful start-ups. Some of my key achievements include spearheading the development and launch of an award-winning, world's first multidimensional GPS map product (Navionics, a Garmin brand), fostering product innovation partnerships between European start-ups and F500 firms (EIT Digital), and accelerating the global expansion of an IoT sensor-enabled supply chain platform start-up (Asynos).
