Ventures & interests.

My involvement differs across these businesses. Each venture’s ownership, responsibilities and development stage should be considered separately; a shared founder or investor does not make them a single corporate group.

OceanMerge®

OceanMerge® is a strategic advisory practice working on commercial readiness, international growth, IP commercialisation, M&A strategy and transaction preparation. Qatar is a priority GCC market, where OceanMerge is establishing a presence, and OceanMerge helps clients seed in Saudi Arabia and Oman.
