Compassionate entrepreneur with over 30 years of experience as a founder, mentor, and advisor, I am supporting and connecting entrepreneurs and investors across the globe. I leverage my expertise in internationalisation, commercialisation, and product development to scale startups and access new opportunities.I am an Ambassador at Innovaud, promoting the Canton of Vaud as an attractive destination for innovation and investment in Switzerland. I am always excited to explore new ways to share my skills and knowledge for social good, sustainability, and climate change. I also mentor young talents working on impactful projects at The Knowledge Society, a globally recognised institution for preparing the next generation of innovators and maximise their ability of making significant impact. What founders say?Unlocking growth potential in new geographic markets can be pivotal for businesses, offering avenues for expansion and future opportunities. However, venturing into unknown territories poses challenges for entrepreneurs, often due to resource constraints and a lack of connections. While public programs exist to support business development, they typically fall short of providing operational assistance.How to scale together?I work with founders to penetrate European, South East Asian, Indian, and Middle Eastern markets. Leveraging my extensive network and industry expertise, I facilitate entry into these markets, identifying and validating business opportunities with strategic customers. Through collaboration with industry experts and on-the-ground contacts, I assist them in establishing a strong foothold, accelerating their growth trajectory.My focus is B2B and B2B2C ventures that have achieved Product-Market-Fit domestically, possess a capable team and runway of at least 24 months, and seek to expand into new markets. I di-risk with a semi-remote approach to minimises disruption to daily operations, allowing founders to concentrate on core activities while maximising returns on investment.Why Connect?Collectively, we want to solve the world's biggest problems. So, letโs collaborate, innovate and partner to successfully affect societal change.www.manojthacker.com
