Bio

Climate Fintech business leader and entrepreneur. Founded Positive Energy Ltd (PEL) in 2017 as part of the Future Economy Studio (FES).

FES is a start-up studio that focuses on leveraging deep-tech to create disruptive and breakthrough innovations.

Since 2018, I focus all my time and energy to develop Positive Energy Ltd. We operate the most comprehensive digital B2B green finance platform for clean energy infrastructure investment. With our digital marketplace, we simplify the financing of renewable energy and energy efficiency projects. We focus on small to mid-size clean energy developers (solar, wind, biomass, waste-to-energy, hydro, storage, energy efficiency) and professional investors (industrial companies, private equity, banks, family offices).

By supporting the financing of clean energy projects by third parties and not the end-users, our platform is an enabler of the Energy-as-a-Service model.

I developed my leadership and resilience capabilities in the last years by taking challenging international assignments for various businesses (internet of things, software, energy, control) at different maturity stages in multi-national companies (defend, start-up, turn-around, fast-growing).

I keep my feet on the ground by having regular customer interactions, while my curiosity and learning agility allow me to develop a vision for the business quickly. My entrepreneurial spirit, project management skills, and sound finance understanding will enable me to drive the team during the execution phase to realize our dreams while rewarding our shareholders.

I am interested in social and business model innovations and a passion for technologies (IoT, AI, Big-Data, Blockchain, AR/VR) and software-intensive markets. I believe technology can help us solve some of our most pressing social issues like preventing climate change or increasing productivity to ease social and economic development.
