Omschrijving

I’m an author, consultant and trainer on digital innovation, design thinking, virtual & augmented reality, metaverse, blockchain & NFTs, and the future of travel and events.

As a speaker I focus on demystifying technology and innovation.

MIT Sloan School of Management Certified Design Thinking

Simply put, I'm a curious, creative and innovation-driven nerd with a talent for explaining complex ideas in simple terms. In writing, on stage and in the boardroom. I love technology, but only tolerate innovations that serve people and improve their lives.

My motto is: "Any technology worth assimilating is accessible, benign and easy to master. If it isn't ignore it"

Having spent the last 20 years taking up entrepreneurship challenges in China, Europe and the Middle East, I’m well placed to offer actionable advice and co-strategise on innovation and digital transformation projects.

Since 2009 I’ve been invited to speak and train on technology, innovation and design at events, academies and organisations in Europe, Asia, Middle East, and South America.

𝐓𝐑𝐀𝐈𝐍𝐈𝐍𝐆 & 𝐂𝐎𝐀𝐂𝐇𝐈𝐍𝐆

I provide group-based and individual coaching and workshops both virtually and onsite. Digital Skills, Innovation or Design Thinking courses.

𝐒𝐏𝐄𝐀𝐊𝐈𝐍𝐆

I've delivered keynotes on four continents for both small and large events. Choose from existing keynotes like ‘The Art of a Thousand Mistakes’ and ‘Something out of Nothing’

𝐂𝐎𝐍𝐒𝐔𝐋𝐓𝐈𝐍𝐆

I advise companies, associations and government agencies on digital innovation and design thinking. I'm typically retained to co-strategise and execute on ambitious digital innovation and transformation projects. Using lean innovation principles and design thinking I help shorten time to market while drastically reducing cost.

𝐖𝐑𝐈𝐓𝐈𝐍𝐆

I'm a contributor to online and print publications reaching hundreds of thousands of people worldwide. Contact me for commissioned writing of op-ed articles, blog posts, and reports.
