I’m driven by the belief that climate stability and biodiversity preservation require structural change. Structural change, in turn, requires companies that reshape physical systems at scale. I founded and exited Greener Power Solutions, building one of the early providers of mobile energy systems for the electrification of construction and infrastructure. The company was ultimately sold to CVC DIF. Today I build and back the next generation of climate and energy ventures. I work hands-on with early-stage and scaling companies such as Zympler, DeWarmte and Weven Energy, helping founders shape strategy, structure growth and prepare for institutional capital. Alongside venture building, I invest as an angel and contribute to the ecosystem as Venture Partner at Rockstart, as well as non-executive director or advisor to several climate tech ventures and VC investors. My focus areas include electrification, energy systems, industrial software and climate infrastructure. I am particularly drawn to founders building durable companies that combine deep technology with measurable climate impact.
