Summary
I spent 20 yrs working for global investment banks in Australia, Hong Kong, Japan and the UK. I founded Future Business Concepts, Inc. in 1998; helping companies with Business Development, Product and Sales Strategy, Financing and Re-Structuring. The initial focus was on the Internet. My firm was involved in the creation of the JV between Melbourne IT and NeuStar that successfully established the .biz generic Top Level Domain. More recently I have assisted a client in the million dollar plus sale of its IP / Patent portfolio, and am currently assisting with a "Next Generation" data encryption firm, and a new Project Management system provider that goes beyond the Agile approach. I have also worked with firms in the Oil & Gas sector, focusing on environmental projects including air and water remediation, as well as New Materials, especially in the concrete space, Manufacturing Technologies, and Corrosion Prevention. My firm expanded its work with clients that focus on Environmental related areas, including companies that have a range of revolutionary Certified Green cleaning products (many of which are also Organic) that are having a profound impact on the bottom line in multiple industries, including HVAC applications (improved system energy performance and IAQ), Agriculture (Poultry, Hogs & Dairy), and All Purpose Cleaning (Assisted Living, Schools, Healthcare, General Janitorial and Retail). From 2002 to 2006 I was on the Board of The Japan Pragmatist Fund, a Japanese hedge fund specializing in small to medium capitalized companies. It closed in Dec 2006 and all investors received their initial capital back plus above market returns. I am also serving on the Board of number of other ventures. Specialties include: - Establishing Synergistic Strategic Alliances / Business Development, - Building Sales Teams, - Marketing Strategies. - Developing Management Structures & Teams - Capital Initiatives, - M&A / Exit Options, - Restructuring.
