Copenhagen, Capital Region of Denmark, Denmark
As an executive technology and business leader, I turn complex industrial technologies into scalable businesses – bridging the gap between R&D and global deployment. Combining deep expertise as a PhD Chemical Engineer with a strong commercial mindset, I have spent the last 15+ years: • Commercializing advanced technologies in energy (PtX), biofuels, and water treatment • Leading international teams delivering large-scale EPC projects and automated plants (up to DKK 250M CAPEX) • Architecting IP strategies and go-to-market plans with international partners to drive profitable growth I’m driven by the circular economy, where technology must not only work – it must scale. My background combines deep technical expertise with executive leadership of distributed organizations and international supply chains. Let’s talk about scaling innovation, Energy Transition & PtX, and sustainable industrial technologies.
