Manager UK & US @ Seed Group

About

As part time Manager for the UK and US (East Coast) at Seed Group, a company under the Private Office of the Royal Family of Dubai (HH Sheikh Saeed bin Ahmed al Maktoum), I focus on fostering international partnerships, joint ventures and strategic collaborations. With over a decade of professional experience, I contribute to the group’s mission of facilitating global business expansion through innovation, technology, and supportive ecosystems. My expertise lies in stakeholder engagement, fundraising, operations and research, aligning with Seed Group's emphasis on enabling businesses to thrive in the Gulf region. I work with a network of investment firms to match capital sources with well qualified businesses. As a former UK Diplomat, my career spans diverse sectors, including government, research, and project management, where I have consistently addressed complex business challenges with integrity, confidentiality, and empathy. I remain committed to connecting mission-driven founders with resources and opportunities for growth, while driving meaningful solutions that align with organisational goals. I have participated in two Tech accelerator schemes, one was funded by Capital Enterprise UK, and JP Morgan Bank, the other - the London Business Growth programme funded by the Mayor of London and the Chamber of commerce. I have interviewed start up founders about their fundraising journey alongside Forbes Monaco (filmed). I was a panelist for the virtual FINWISE conference alongside Eric Gu, and financier Tim Draper; moderated the 'harnessing all possibilities' webinar in association with the Bahamas Blockchain business school/HAP (in Conneticut, USA); gave talks at the COI Ladder institute business retreat in Massachusetts. I studied at IESE business school, University of Navarra (Barcelona) and at the Sorbonne University in Paris. I have visited 30 + UNESCO heritage sites. I am a huge fan of sound baths !
