He co-founded multiple ventures—from early democratised AI for stock trading to PropTech and innovation incubators—bringing a rare mix of product design, business development, and academic rigor. As head of a MAS in Corporate Innovation Management and now professor at I3, he helps organisations and students think faster and more effectively about complex problems and behavioural change.
