I am a growth hacker and a business accelerator. I help companies focus on the right growth vector, build fundable business plans, develop go to market strategies and build early traction.
As an advisor to the Boards of technology companies, Ahmet has successfully worked with and through Boards and management teams, identified new growth vectors, built compelling business plans, and created traction with customers and investors. He has coached, mentored, and led teams through methodic innovation, strategic planning, and fundraising activities towards revenue growth, higher profits and shareholder value.Most recently he was an advisor to the Board of a Machine Learning company in Silicon Valley where he worked with the Board and the CEO to transform the company from a chip design house to a systems company. Previously he led a strategic review for the Board of a South Australian system and software company in the automotive space. Under Ahmet’s guidance the team developed sharper focus, new annual and long range plans and identified a new strategic growth segment that will increase shareholder value. Prior to this, Ahmet provided CEO coaching, Board advisory and consulting services for Tallwood VC portfolio company delivering wireless solutions in the IoT and wearable computing markets. This two year effort resulted in a successful sale of assets to a large semiconductor company. Ahmet also played a key role in the successful integration of $1 billion merger and ran 2 of the 3 resulting business units across 9 countries. He grew the post-merger revenues of the automotive business unit by over 20% in the first 12 months with on-target gross margins. Then, took over, and rejuvenated the declining handset business resulting in a successful sale for $310 million. Ahmet’s high-tech experience goes back to Intel where he was the product manager for 8088 microprocessor. His entrepreneurial drive led him to Chips & Technologies for the first notebook PC where he grew the chipset revenues 300% over three years to reach $100 million.
Work Terms
Flexible hours. Prefer to have an initial phone/Skype call to assess whether I am a good fit for the job. I will not take on projects I am not confident I can't deliver on time within projected budget.
