Chief Executive officer at Defence, Security and Resilience Bank (DSRB) Development Group
I believe exceptional results are achieved through strong teams, effective leadership and delivering on promises. These principles have shaped my work for over 25 years.
After more than a decade as a British Army officer, I joined NATO’s International Staff, where I helped reshape how nations invest in defence. I played a key role in multi-billion-dollar NATO investment programmes and, as Head of Innovation, helped establish DIANA and the €1 billion NATO Innovation Fund.
I later served as a Professor at Johns Hopkins University, teaching innovation and entrepreneurship globally, before joining Saab to redefine the modern defence company.
Today, I work with governments, businesses and entrepreneurs to help them prepare for the future.
