Bio

With more than 20 years of professional experience in both developed markets and emerging/developing countries across various sectors, my experience includes investment/business advisory in Japan, Asia, USA, and development financing as well as project management in South East Asia, South Asia, and Africa. Focusing on investments and development impact creation in Africa since 2010, with clear linkages to promote SMEs, agriculture value chains, energy, manufacturing and a total of more than 60 projects were appraised with a total amount of almost USD 1.5 billion including some pan-Africa investment vehicles and investment facilities. Combining with international development, development impact tracking/monitoring and commercial investment experience and technical skills, I can manage and develop strategies for a company/organization and led teams to design, structure and implement/invest a wide range of projects in finance, agriculture value-chain, manufacturing and service sectors to create and balance social and commercial returns in Africa and developing/emerging economies.
