About

I am an entrepreneur/general manager in the digital (media) space and I am always looking for interesting projects to assist in an advisory but hands-on capacity. I am a digital strategist, who grew up in the analogue world and knows how to build bridges between the 'old'​ world and today's reality. I understand both sides and can easily facilitate communication between them. I am interested in all aspects related to the area of digitization and the paradigm shift it brings about, the new opportunities it creates and the broader impact on society. Very broad industry background, in particular in sports and music, with substantial experience in the electronic media (digital media, IPTV, rights licensing, broadcast operations), marketing (sponsorship, licensing) and legal (contract negotiation and drafting) and social media fields. Strong leadership skills and proven track record of delivering results under difficult circumstances in varying cultural environments. Experienced negotiator. Strong social skills. Team builder and integrator.
