Introduction

🚀 I help SaaS & AI companies scale across Europe. Over 25+ years, I’ve built and led high-performing international sales teams, generating €100M+ in revenues and driving growth for both global leaders (Oracle, IBM, Dell, Software AG) and scaleups (NDI, Ynpact, Choice, Terracotta, Datamirror, Atempo). My expertise: GTM strategy, enterprise sales, AI-powered transformation, and international expansion (EMEA/APAC). I’m recognized for closing 7-figure enterprise deals, building pipelines 3–4x above targets, and accelerating ARR from zero to multimillion within 24 months. 👉 Available for VP Sales / Managing Director roles, and advisory missions for founders, investors, and scaleups. 📩 Let’s connect: [email protected] | +33 (0) 7 67 30 82 61 - + 39 (0) 353 473 6931
