Shannen de Vries

I work at the intersection of infrastructure, renewable energy and talent, partnering with investors and advisory platforms to build high-performing investment teams across Europe. At ODM Partners, I support mandates spanning the full investment lifecycle, from origination and transaction execution through to portfolio and asset management. Our clients range from large-cap infrastructure funds to mid-market and pure-play renewable investors across Core, Core+ and Value-Add strategies. Prior to this, I led regional business development across the Middle East for HMi Elements, focusing on market entry, distributor partnerships and commercial positioning within the energy and industrial technology sectors. Working internationally across Europe, North America and the Middle East has shaped my perspective on long-term relationship building and strategic growth. Currently pursuing an MBA, I continue to deepen my focus on commercial strategy, capital allocation and international expansion within the energy transition landscape. With a First-Class degree in English Literature, I bring a bias toward clarity, structured thinking and strong communication, qualities I see as fundamental to both investing and partnership-building.
