Portfolio highlights

  • STRGY AI — The strategy was never the problem. The evidence was correct, sitting in someone's hands, and it died anyway because nothing in the organization was built to carry that evidence from where it was seen to where it could be acted on, and keep it alive long enough to matter. Not a bad plan. Not bad people. A structural gap between signal andauthority that every existing tool — decks, dashboards, status meetings — is too static and too easy to ignore to actually close.STRGY exists because that gap is the default state of every organization above a certain size, and closing it has always required either a heroic individual repeating themselves for years or luck (the corporate pilot needed one person to remember "do not drop this" at the right moment, and no one did). That's not a strategy problem to solve with a better framework — it's an infrastructure problem. You need something that holds the signal, doesn't forget it, doesn't get bored repeating it, and resurfaces it automatically the moment the gap between evidence and action starts to widen. That's what a human can't do reliably at scale, and what software with real memory can.
  • Coolbrook — Coolbrook is a manufacturer of naphtha cracking-based reactors. Their technology is intended to replace the conventional steam cracker furnace in existing and new olefins plants, enabling petrochemical clients to get improved product yield and lower energy consumption.
  • Solar Foods — Solar Foods is a food-tech startup that specializes in testing a technology that uses electricity to produce hydrogen which is combined with carbon dioxide, water, vitamins, and minerals to feed and grow microbial biomass that can be used as edible protein.
