I live to create
Thirty years building companies, several exits, now working where AI changes how businesses get built and run. If you are a founder, a board, or a company that needs senior help turning an idea into something real, talk to me.
What I do
Hands-on building. You bring a problem or a goal; I work inside the team to solve it. Venture development, product and platform architecture, fintech, and AI-driven operations.
A senior sparring partner for the decisions that matter. Retained and on call for founders and leadership teams working through strategy, execution, and growth.
On site full-day sessions built on two open frameworks from decades of company building: Idea Validation and Simple Strategy, applied directly to your own venture.
Track record
I founded mCASH and Settle (both acquired), pioneered mobile payments in the Nordics, and spent more than fifteen years as a fit-and-proper-approved founder, CEO, and board member of regulated fintech companies in Europe. Entrepreneur of the Year 2014. Former member of the Google Cloud Customer Advisory Board.
DRD Ventures
Companies, tools, and frameworks I have a stake in. A few are pre-launch.
I work best with founders, boards, and companies that already know roughly where they want to go and need senior help getting there. If that is you, book a call.
