What...
With a career in innovation, I’ve learned success isn’t just about ideas—it’s about the process that brings them to life. I turn complex concepts into real-world technologies with impact.
What excites me most is bridging the gap from idea to execution, creating ecosystems where innovation thrives, gains traction, and scales.
Below, I outline key services designed to make innovation more than just a buzzword—turning it into reality.
1. Getting Investment Ready
through an Investability Audit
Innovation thrives with hands-on involvement, not just great ideas. I leverage my Investability Audit methodology to provide direct business input across Technology, Commercial, Financial, and Industry Readiness, helping startups gain traction and guiding established companies through transformation.
I take a participatory approach, embedding myself in businesses and innovation programs to offer actionable,
real-world guidance. By staying connected to daily
operations, I help refine strategies, support leadership decisions, and empower teams to drive growth.
My goal is to equip companies with the resources, know-
ledge, and support needed to not just survive—but thrive.
2. Facilitating Traction and Scale-Up Opportunities
Once a technology is introduced, the challenge is gaining traction and scaling efficiently. Many innovations struggle due to misalignment with market demands or credibility gaps. I help emerging technologies overcome these hurdles to succeed in the Australian and Asia-Pacific (AusPac) regions.
Traction isn’t just about early adopters—it’s about solving real industry pain points and ensuring seamless adoption. My work in Heavy Industries has driven scalable innovation in a traditionally slow-changing sector. By aligning technology with industry norms, I ensure efficient, effective scaling.
Leveraging my deep industry involvement, I help build credibility, enabling successful adoption in Heavy Industries to pave the way for broader market expansion.
By leveraging my network of innovators, advocates, and industry users, I identify technologies that are not just promising but ready for real-world adoption. My focus on market readiness ensures seamless integration with minimal disruption.
Beyond discovery, I vet market gaps to align solutions with industry needs—ensuring businesses adopt innovations that drive real, practical change.
I start by aligning key stakeholders early, setting the stage for smooth, iterative scoping. Every step keeps momentum while addressing deep needs and realistic expectations. The goal isn’t just a project pipeline but a dynamic process teams can own.
By securing buy-in and fostering collaboration, I build strong innovation programs that drive impact, align with strategic goals, and create lasting value.
3. Vetting New-Ways-to-Work Opportunities into Business-as-Usual
I specialise in sourcing, evaluating, and integrating emerging technologies into industries that often default to “business as usual.” In high-stakes fields like construction, mining, and advanced manufacturing, innovation must be both impactful and low-risk.
4. Building Innovation Programmes that Actually Deliver!
Innovation isn’t one-size-fits-all—it’s about creating real change at all levels. My approach is structured yet flexible, ensuring stakeholder engagement and measurable results.
These four services—designing and launching innovation programmes, assessing emerging technologies, facilitating scale-up opportunities, and providing direct business input—are about making innovation tangible. They’re not just buzzwords or flashy concepts; they’re about real, sustainable change that can be seen, felt, and experienced. If you’re looking for someone who not only understands how to drive innovation but has a proven track record of doing it successfully, then let’s chat.
