Who I work with
I partner with leaders who are responsible for serious outcomes – capital, jobs, national infrastructure. My work focuses on four groups:
Private Equity & Family Offices
Carve-outs, turnarounds, and value-creation plans for portfolio companies in telecom, infrastructure and technology.
Telecom & Digital Infrastructure Operators
Network and IT transformation, AI-enabled operations, and growth across emerging and developed markets.
Founders & CEOs
Governments & Development Institutions
Connectivity, digital inclusion and infrastructure programmes in challenging markets.
Sparring partner for strategy, org design, and scaling teams through rapid change.

“Insights”
This blog series distills two decades of technology leadership across emerging and developed markets into actionable insights about what actually works when the network goes down, when culture resists change, and when the future arrives faster than your org chart.
It's not theory. It's what I've learned leading transformations, surviving crises, building ecosystems, and connecting technology with purpose across Africa, Europe, and the Middle East.
If you're a tech leader, a change agent, or someone who believes technology should serve humanity, not just shareholders, this is for you.
“The trickcast”
Boardroom scholars & magicians.The TrickCast is where we unpack the real stories behind transformation, technology and leadership – from AI and digital infrastructure to distressed assets and emerging markets. No buzzwords, no theatre, just practical insight and a bit of mischief.
