Global Strategic viewpoint, on-the-ground due diligence, negotiation, and restructuring.Member of the Board of several private and public companies.In the last years, I have decided to focus my efforts on companies that help ensure we will have a world to live in. I look for ways to support the different causes related to sustainability, decarbonization, energy efficiency, and renewable energy. In some cases, this meant creating something that wasn’t there, such as finding a solution to decarbonize Europe’s building stock. Other times, it means supporting raising awareness of the issue and advocating across Europe for evidence-based policies. I also help companies through Advisory and Consulting to streamline their processes and make sure they make through the quick changes that the world now requires. An entrepreneur with several startup experiences, I have expertise in structuring and managing public and private sector project finance in emerging markets, including as a turn-around specialist in significant investments. As President/CEO of ITC, a US-based telecom with operations in Brazil, I successfully raised a new round of venture capital and repositioned the company through acquisitions and divestments to offer specific services in Bank Security, Retail, and Private Clinics thus increasing revenues while decreasing costs. In the mid-90s, as Principal Banker in London and Deputy Representative with the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development in Sofia, Bulgaria, I closed transactions in the nascent private sector while participating in institution building efforts.Prior to this, as a physicals and futures commodities trader, I pioneered options pricing engines before being tasked with M&A responsibilities in the US and the Caribbean. Throughout the years, I has had the opportunity to create new systems using technology. In the 80’s, I installed the first PC-based accounting systems financing his studies, developed the 1st language training system using voice recognition (CALT), the first portfolio based commodity system (ISIS) from trade to balance sheet combining the books of traders in Hong-Kong, New York, Paris and Hamburg and the first nationwide bank digital video security system as well as an array of smaller systems in practically every company he has worked with.
