I help boards, executives and governments capitalise on AI: from agentic strategy to building the ventures that deliver it. Twelve years in, and more than 40 AI companies built.
I work with boards and leadership teams who want AI to create real value. New products, new ventures and new ways of working, with a focus on results and execution.
I'm an entrepreneur, technology executive and one of Australia's leading non-executive directors in AI. I have helped build AI companies and as well as helped large organisations capitalise on AI while retaining the necessary control, oversight and governance.
In 12-plus years in AI, I've helped build more than 40 AI companies, led AI adoption as an executive and advisor, guided AI strategy for government departments in four countries, and overseen its governance as a Board Director and Committee Chair in heavily regulated industries. I focus on developing cohesive AI strategy and turn this into a series of initiatives - from new products and ventures to embedding agentic AI into how organisations really work, including where trust and human oversight are non-negotiable.
Using agentic AI across customer discovery and the innovation lifecycle, grounded in proven frameworks like Jobs-to-be-Done and a tight, iterative learning loop.
Designing how teams and agents work together day-to-day, so AI becomes part of the operating model rather than a side experiment.
Driving adoption and use of agentic AI at scale across complex organisations.
Developing strategy to respond to, and capitalise on, the agentic economy, where autonomous agents reshape products, channels and competition.
Expertise designing oversight models for heavily regulated industries, where accountability and control sit alongside autonomy.
Navigating the shift to an AI-native organisation: architecture, capability and culture, sequenced so you can move without breaking trust.
The real customer or organisational job to be done.
Agentic prototypes and experiments that put something testable in front of reality, fast.
Focusing on what the loop actually tells us about real value and fit, not opinion.
Sequence the winners into ventures, products or embedded ways of working.
Cutting-edge, entrepreneurial and accountable to outcomes, built on a long track record of getting emerging technology to market.
I'd love to know what you're working on and discuss how AI can create real value for you.
I'll be in touch shortly. Talk soon.
