Singapore
Building financial infrastructure for high-growth technology companies at the point where scaling gets genuinely hard: multi-jurisdiction operations, complex fundraising, and M&A integration under pressure. Over the past decade I have raised over $75M across multiple funding rounds, led the acquisition and integration of Sigfox, a former French unicorn operating across 70 countries through exclusive national operators. Currently Group CFO and Head of HR at Hex Trust, a regulated digital asset infrastructure group operating across APAC, MENA, and Europe, and CEO of Hex Technologies Pte Ltd, its MAS-licensed Singapore entity holding a Major Payment Institution Licence. I work best in environments where the financial function needs to grow faster than the business, either to upgrade outdated systems or prepare for the next stage of growth: building institutional-grade FP&A, structuring capital raises with strategic and financial investors, navigating multi-jurisdiction regulatory complexity, and preparing organisations for liquidity events. This includes deploying AI-driven tools across M&A due diligence, investor relations, financial reporting, and contract management, all built and used in live environments. Sectors: fintech, AI-enabled businesses, digital infrastructure, sustainability. Stage: Seed to exit.
