Biography
UCL School of Management
Ex-serial entrepreneur. Now an advisor, Visiting Professor of Entrepreneurship and public speaker.
When I'm not teaching at world-leading universities and business schools, or advising them on their entrepreneurial ecosystem, you’ll find me working directly with various start-ups in which I’m personally vested. These include "disruptive" businesses in digital marketplace, on-demand services, e-commerce and health & wellness sectors. I have mentored many others in a huge variety of fields.
I recently developed London Business School’s 14-week online entrepreneurship course, "The Entrepreneurial Edge", for which I am currently Course Director. I am responsible for the "Managing the Growing Firm" core course on the MSc in Entrepreneurship at UCL, a Visiting Professor at the Indian School of Business, and also tutor at Warwick Business School. I have recently taught at and/or developed Entrepreneurship programmes for the University of Oxford, The British Council, London Metropolitan University, Deakin University (Australia), SP Jain IMR (India), AIESEC (Global) and many other leading HEIs around the world. As a consultant, I have advised Aston University, SP Jain Institute of Management Research, Pearson PLC, and 3 of the top 4 leading Arab-Region universities, amongst others.
I previously originated the Entrepreneur-In-Residence roles at London Business School and WeWork (UK), and co-ran the UK Chapter of the Start-Up Leadership Programme. I regularly mentor at Techstars, Microsoft Accelerator and Mass Challenge, and also have close links with LMarks, Virgin Start-ups and other leading accelerator programmes.
