I’ve led P&L, secured €70M+ in EU R&D funds, managed BD teams, closed 150+ contracts, and led 8 EU projects.
Head of EU Projects
My CV revolves around R&D from almost all angles: I've managed a P&L of a US company focused on raising non-dilutive, government R&D funds for Small Business; I've managed Business Development teams and closed around 150 service contracts; I've worked for 10 years w/ and for high-performing grant writing teams raising almost 70 million eur in R&D funds for European SMEs; I've been Project Manager of 8x EU funded projects.
Probably my best skill is a well-balance compromise between business and technical knowledge. My top business achievement has been to run a P&L covering BBDD, services provided, financial and legal aspects. My technical knowledge comes from a double degree, 4 years in academia, and hundred of R&d projects managed for industries and their business models. My technical comfort zone is a triangle of agriculture/food, environment/pollution and energy/biomaterials.
