About
Born in Athens, Greece, I am an experienced international consultant with extensive experience in “real economy” and digital economy investment advisory and management.
I act in support of buy side investors (funds, investment banks, HNWI) and company owners, delivering vendor due diligence, commercial due diligence, business planning, financial forecasting and post-investment strategic development services.
Since starting my career, I have advised on over 140 transactions with a total investment value exceeding € 6 billion.
I have multi-sectoral experience from due diligence, business planning and financial modelling, in sectors including agri-food, manufacturing, hospitality and digital start-ups. I have worked in over 40 countries since starting my career.
Since 2010, I lead the Navigator Entrepreneurship Charter, an initiative to support growth in Europe by investing in 10 new companies between 2010-2020. In this capacity, I act as early stage angel investor and board member.
I am founder of the European Consulting Network (www.ecn-eu.com), an international network of over 10,000 consultants, researchers and universities. I am also the founder of the Centre for Innovation & Entrepreneurship (CEI) (www.innovationcentre.com), which consolidates and expands the activities of the Entrepreneurship Charter.
In 2019, I was an Entrepreneur-in-Residence at the University of Cyprus, and mentored start-up founders from the UCY community. I've also delivered training and consulting for the Cyprus Research and Innovation Foundation, the Cyprus Chamber of Commerce and Industry, the Cyprus SEEDS Programme, and RISE, the Cyprus Centre of Interactive Media, Smart Systems and Emerging Technologies.
I advise Brookstreet Equity Partners on investments in innovative Greek enterprises. I'm also on the board of Redfin, a regulated asset management firm based in Cyprus.
I'm an accredited trainer for the European Bank of Reconstruction & Development’s Advice for Small Business / Grow your Consulting Business series. I'm also an evaluator for the European Commission's Horizon Programme.
