for whom?

For founders and startup teams aiming to address a significant problem and seeking tangible evidence to ground their efforts. For entrepreneurs in search of problems to solve as a foundation for launching their business.

what it entails?

It could take a couple of meeting with me or it may require a series of workshops and users studies. Regardless of what it takes, it is a process which:

• gets the root of the problem you want to tackle
• leads to clear problem definition
• helps your team stay focused so precious resources are not wasted
• outlines and, if required, visualises life after the right problem is solved
  
• helps conveying the scale and severity of the problem so investors can easier understand the business opportunity you bring
  

for whom?

For startups and their teams seeking thoughtful, innovative, and manufacturable products but lacking high-level design capabilities. For founders aspiring to have their products compete with the best in the market.

what it entails?

It may take anything from a month to a year but the outcomes will:

• have a form and function that spark joy and confidence in people
• translate innovative ideas into great products that solve user problems
• be anything from a stylistic refreshment to a result of a full design project, from an initial concept generation to Minimum Viable Product (MVP) and beyond to technical implementation
• be manufacturable and have production cost considered from the day one so budgets are meet
  
• thoroughly tested via Proof of Concept (PoC) prototypes and/or materialised via realistic prototypes to WOW your investors
  

for whom?

For founders and startup teams engaged in testing, demonstrations, pitching, or sales, requiring the materialisation of their ideas and products.

how do I do it?

I can manifest ideas, either working with you or independently, by giving them highly simplified or highly detailed forms to meet your current needs. I can create:

• Proof or Concepts (POC)
• development prototypes for specific testing
• highly detailed realistic prototypes
• visual prototypes, can take form of sketches or realistic renderings
  
• 3D models
  

for whom?

For founders and founding teams new to product development, seeking experienced backing to guide them along their innovation journey.

how do I do it?

• by serving as innovation, design or product development advisor
• by sharing with you my network of trusted partners (lawyers, EU grant specialists, angel investors, etc.)
• by helping you trough alternative founding routs like crowdfunding (I backed over 20 projects over the last decade)
• by joining your founding team
