I turn complex businesses into the model, the narrative and the numbers an investor or board actually tests. What I do best: Financial modeling and valuation. 100+ driver-based models (DCF, multiples, 3-statement, LBO logic), built to be technically rigorous and decision-friendly. Deal contexts up to €17.5bn, including the largest European tower transaction of 2022, for funds such as Mubadala and KKR. Fundraising and investor materials. Helped 40+ startups raise from pre-seed to mezzanine with pitch decks, business plans, market sizing and the financial story behind the ask. Incl. a $50m raise at 30%+ IRR and a €70m infrastructure raise. Market research and due diligence. 130+ research and commercial DD projects across fintech, healthcare, pharma/biotech, logistics, ESG and FMCG, turning complex data into a clear go/no-go. Strategy. Growth and market-entry for global players including Deutsche Telekom and Nokia, and a market-entry that became a $0.5bn-revenue business unit. Recent engagements include sell-side materials for a defence-grade software vendor, a complete fundraise toolkit for a vertical HR SaaS (39-tab model, cohort economics, investor deck), and a valuation with SAFE raise playbook for a solar software company.
